'a biblical giant showing eager curiosity' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'a biblical giant' is the wordplay.
'biblical giant' becomes 'gog' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'biblical' bit.).
'a'+'gog'='AGOG'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for agog that I've seen before include "On tenterhooks" , "on the edge of your seat" , "Eagerly expectant" , "Very eager (to see or hear something)" , "Full of expectation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
