From Samuel 17, we know David, as a young lad, didn’t just kill the giant Goliath; he killed a bear and a lion.

Jordan explains, “He said, ‘I killed a lion and I killed a bear; now I’ve killed me a giant.’ David’s still learning. When I read those verses my mind runs immediately to Daniel 2 and 7, and Hosea 13 and Revelation 13, and all those things associated with the Antichrist and the ultimate manifestation of the satanic policy of evil.”

Just after the close of Israel’s national anthem (lyricized in Deuteronomy 32), is the explanation, “And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.”

Jordan says, “In Revelation, this Song of Moses turns into the song of the lamb as the old covenant turns into the new. The Lord Jesus comes back as ‘the lamb of God,’ but most of the time that we think of Him as the lamb we think of the ‘for sinners slain’ kind of thing.

“Almost all of the time in the New Testament Scripture when He’s referred to as ‘the lamb of God,’ He’s not being referred to as the one ‘for sinner’s slain,’ but as the one who comes in wrath—the great day of His wrath is come and the Lamb is sitting on the throne. He comes to reclaim and claim for Himself what His Crosswork accomplished.

“He’s going to deliver (Israel) from the stronghold of Satan and then He’s going to have mercy on his land and people. Isaiah says the land will be called ‘Beulah land.’ Beulah means married. We’ve got a song that goes, ‘Oh, Beulah land, sweet Beulah land.’ It’s talking about heaven.

“Another song is, ‘I won’t have to cross Jordan alone.’ But when the (old hymn) talks about ‘on Jordan’s stormy banks I stand and cast a wishful eye,’ they’re talking about Canaan being heaven and Jordan being death, and that’s not what it is in Scripture. Canaan is Israel’s Promised Land and they’re going in to possess their possessions. In the Bible, Beulah land is talking about the nation Israel married to her land and never to be separated again; never to be divorced from that land again.”

In Job 38, God starts listing off for Job just some of the animals Job can’t control. .Man was designed to have dominion over every creature in the earth and so God, in order to demonstrate things aren’t the way they’re supposed to be, starts asking Job, “Can you control the lion? How about the raven?”

There’s also the wild goats, calves, wild asses, unicorns, hawks, eagles, on and on. If you count down from chapter 38:39 all the way down to Job 40:15, the behemoth is the 13^th animal listed in this passage.

Jordan explains, “He’s Mister 13. It’s the number of rebellion. This is not a good guy here. By the way, you can read about him in Revelation 13.

“The word behemoth is a Hebrew word. It’s not translated; it’s just transliterated into the English language. The word is literally the plural form for the Hebrew word ‘beast.’ Well, that’s not hard to understand because, in Revelation 13:1-2, when it describes the Antichrist, it says he has the body of a leopard, the mouth of a lion and the feet of a bear. The Antichrist is a composite beast. He’s identified that way in Hosea 13, for example.

The first mention of leviathan is in Job 41:1. He’s later identified in Isaiah 27 as Satan. “So what you’re dealing with here is the Antichrist and the power behind him— Satan,” says Jordan. “The reason God is doing that with Job is because, if you start in 40: 6-14, in essence, what the Lord says to Job is, ‘Here’s what it’s going to take for you to deliver yourself out of satanic captivity.’

“God says, ‘Let’s look at your adversary,’ and Job looks at the behemoth, then looks at leviathan. They’re the real enemy that held Job in satanic captivity and the captivity is not going to be over with until these two characters are dealt with in the last days.

“Everything in Job 40 has tremendously significant things to it. If the ‘behemoth eateth grass as an ox,’ you have two horns like that.

“That serpent that stood there in front of Eve was not a legless little scaled snake hanging on the ground. The serpent was a beautiful, handsome, adorned angel of light whose character was that of a serpent.

“Satan was ‘more subtle than any beast in the field’ because in his essence he’s a cherub and a cherub in Ezekiel 1 is identified as the ox. So, when it says ‘he eats grass as an ox,’ it’s something about the essence of who he is. It says, ‘Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
[17] He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
[18] His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.’

“By the way, his belly (Rev. 3)—he’s got the body of a leopard. His bones are like bars of iron. Genesis 4, in describing the course of this world under satanic dominion, is where the iron first shows up in Bible. Iron was an invention for use as part of the course of this world.

Deuteronomy 3:11 says, “For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.”

“Where’d the giants come from?” says Jordan. “Genesis 6. Angels mingled with the seed of man. That’s what we read there in Daniel 2. It’s pointing you back to Genesis 6 as to the origin of these 10 kings.

“The guy’s got a bed that’s 12-feet-by-6-feet. He’s a big dude because he’s one of the giants. But he’s one of those remnant of those giants that came from the ‘sons of God’ coming down and cohabitating with ‘the daughters of men.’

“In Deuteronomy 4:10 you’ll see the reference is to ‘the iron furnace even out of Egypt.’ Egypt is where Israel was held in satanic captivity. My point is iron in the Bible is associated with satanic activity, and in Daniel 2 when he talks about how ‘they mingle themselves with the seed of man,’ there’s an issue there about demons and man and producing a seed and these demons coming in and taking on to themselves a human identity.

“Now, if you take on yourself a human identity as in Genesis 6, then you go to Revelation 17 and these demonic creatures—these fallen spirits who’ve taken on a human vessel of identity . . . when it says ‘they will eat the flesh of the woman,’ the woman is guilty of the blood of the servants of Jesus.”
