The Leviathan is a strange creature in the Bible and tradition. In this podcast episode I look at the Leviathan, the sea serpent, the dragon, and its relationship to the devil, and how al of these associations came to be what they can mean. And also it can help us understand how symbolism can be polyvalent that is that symbolism can have multiple meanings at the same time, and that understanding those multiple meanings can also help us understand how symbolism works and then also help us understand the specific meanings that are attributed to each symbol and the leviathan.Links:- The Symbolic World Summit in-person tickets: https://thesymbolicworld.com/summit - Summit Virtual Conference tickets: https://thesymbolicworld.com/virtual-ticket - Godsdog: Warrior (Volume 2) Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/symbolicworldpress/godsdog-warrior- Read my latest newsletter about the Snow White Kickstarter and Symbolic World Press: https://preview.mailerlite.io/preview/109126/emails/112690471726221267Article: The Serpents of Orthodoxy, by Jonathan Pageau: https://orthodoxartsjournal.org/the-serpents-of-orthodoxy/Videos related to the Symbolic World Summit speakers:- With Fr.
