Good Morning! We have completed the Book of Jonah in the Old Testament. Thomas and I share a few of our thoughts with you. When God calls Jonah to preach repentance to the wicked Ninevites, the prophet knows that God’s mercy may follow. He turns down the assignment and heads for Tarshish instead. But once God has dampened his spirits, by tossing him out of the boat and into the water, and has demonstrated His protection by moving him out of the water and into the fish, Jonah realizes God is serious about His command. Nineveh must hear the word of the Lord, therefore Jonah goes. Although the preaching is a success, the preacher comes away angry and discouraged and he must learn firsthand of God’s compassion for sinful men. Yonah is the Hebrew word for “dove”. The Septuagint hellenized this word into Ionas, and the Latin Vulgate used the title Jonas. Share your thoughts on Facebook Messenger page or text my phone.
