Added changes to lead paragraph

There was a notification saying the lead was too long. Upon review, the lead was two paragraphs, with the second essentially being a list of common features among cultures. It was unnecessarily long - so I shortened it into a summary and merged the paragraphs together. --Tunakimbap (talk) 11:36, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The translation of the Hebrew text sounds unusual - I don't think "dragon" is the standard translation for תנין — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:4040:ADF8:D00:CC52:E3B:7A02:BF7E (talk) 02:06, 28 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

the Beast of Revelation

The Wikipedia article on Number of the Beast (666) mentions the Dragon, apparently as a synonym for the Beast. The Book of Revelation contains 3 visions: the seven headed dragon, the Serpent and the Beast. It's possible that since dragon derives from the same word as serpent, that the distinction between the Serpent (in the Bible) and the Dragon is due to incorrect translation or possibly some other confusion. I don't know, but it *is* a term used in the Christian Bible, so that needs to be included. Oh, there's a book, The Throne, the Lamb & the Dragon which is about Revelations and almost certainly contains more information for any editor wanting to pursue this.40.142.183.146 (talk) 21:02, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
