17a He moveth his tail like a cedar:

An elephant still works. Note that the verse states the tail MOVES like a cedar, not that the tail IS like a cedar. A cedar moves slowly and little in the wind, like an elephant's tail. It's not a fast twitch, but a slow motion wave.

The tail moves like a cedar, the tail is not like a cedar.

lol now thats a stretch, i’m sure i can name lots of things that move slowly in the wind, that can better describe an elephants tail. A cedar implies very large and thick.

We must be on the same wavelength..only you’re quicker on the post button. :o)

Elephants do not move their tails like a cedar, they hang downward, and curl.
