The scriptures (and the original English translations thereof) predate the word dinosaur.

That's very telling. Humans talk. Humans give names to things because they otherwise cannot talk about them to anybody. One would think that huge critters walking around would result in discussion, which would require their getting a name?

Dino fossils have been found around the Middle East, indicating that they once were wandering the area, yet no Middle-Eastern records mention them, and no words for them seem to exist.

So, do you think dinos made it onto Noah's Ark?

Well, בהמות comes to mind.

What are you going to tell me next, that there are no black swans?

Read Genesis 7:15
