References for Job 41:11 —  1   2   3 

Job 41:1–34 The Lord describes the power of Leviathan in terms of man’s inability to subdue him. He compares such power to his own (vv. 9–11).

Job 41:1 Leviathan may be a crocodile, though some see it as a mythical creature representing forces overcome by God in creation (compare 3:8). Whatever powerful creature is in view, it is a part of God’s creation and is governed by his power (see note on Ps. 74:14).

Job 41:9–11 If people are unable to subdue Leviathan, who is a part of God’s creation, then how much more cautious should Job be about his desire to bring his case and stand before God.

Job 41:24 Heart in this verse represents the chest (see Ex. 28:29).
