"we live in a world of chaos, death, and disorder. The authors of the Bible use a common ancient image to depict to this reality; the sea dragon. In the story of the Bible, humans are deceived and align themselves with the power of chaos and death. And when they do, they come themselves, sea dragons; snaky monsters."

'When Jesus sees the Jewish soldiers coming to arrest him in Gethsemane... "Why are you coming at me, like I'm a criminal bandit? I've been with you in the temple every day and you didn't stretch out your hands against me. But this hour belongs to you and the power of darkness.' Jesus sees a monster coming at him in the form of Jewish temple guards."
