Judges 14:18 Lion mentioned for its strength;
2 Samuel 17:10 Lion mentioned for boldness;
Psalm 7:2 Lion mentioned for ferocity;
Psalms 10:9 & 17:12 for stealth.
They are regarded as frightening : Ezra 19:7
Hosea 11:10 Amos 3:8
and destructive (1 Samuel 17:34; Micah 5:8)
as well as territorially protective (Isaiah 31:4).
The classical portrayal of a lion frightening
his prey and silently stalking it to devour it is:
I Peter 5:8
A counter example of a lion's traits resembling
God is Amos 3:8
