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.
Yes, because an elephant is a stretch but dinosaurs in Job aren't...;)
A cedar implies very large and thick.
And the verse - if you read it as it is written - does not say it is a cedar, just that it MOVES like a cedar. There is NO COMPARISON of the physical tail to the physical size or scale of the cedar tree! The ONLY comparison there is that the movement of the trunk is like how the cedar tree moves.
Really, the words are pretty plain and straight forward; it MOVES like the cedar tree. It is NOT like a tree in size at all. Trying to make that comparison IS a stretch.
