29:3-16 The opening section of the oracle is a word of judgment against Pharaoh, who is addressed as a great sea monster. These creatures were a familiar part of ancient Near Eastern mythology as a manifestation of chaos that had to be tamed by the gods. Strikingly, these same sea monsters appear in demythologized form as part of God’s good creation (Gen 1:21). In this chapter, however, the mythical image blends with the image of Pharaoh as a great crocodile, resting comfortably in the streams that laced the delta of the Nile.

(Occurrence 0) the great sea monster
(Some words not found in UHB: speak and,say thus he/it_had_said my=master GOD look,I against,you Farˊoh king Miʦrayim/(Egypt) the,monster the,great the,lying in_the=middle streams,his which/who he/it_had_said to=me nile,my and,I made,myself )
“the huge creature that lives in the water.” Yahweh calls Pharaoh a monster that lives in the water. The monster is probably a crocodile.
