 Behemoth
    (Job 40:15-24). Some have supposed this to be an Egyptian word
    meaning a "water-ox." The Revised Version has here in the margin
    "hippopotamus," which is probably the correct rendering of the
    word. The word occurs frequently in Scripture, but, except here,
    always as a common name, and translated "beast" or "cattle."
