	Jonah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Prophet Jonah, as depicted by Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel
		Jonah (יוֹנָה "Dove", Standard Hebrew Yona, Latin Ionas, Tiberian Hebrew,and (Arabic يونس Yunus or Yunis in Islamic Qura'anic terms) was a person in the Biblical Old Testament and Jewish Tanakh, the son of Amittai ("True"), from the Galilean village of Gath-hepher, near Nazareth.
		Jonah, from a notion probably that his divine mission would be disputed, was afflicted at this result and complained to God that he had always questioned whether, as being a God of mercy, He would not yield to their prayers.

	Jonah - David Steinberg
		Jonah is very displeased and he sits in a sukkah under the blazing Iraqi sun to wait to see what will happen to the city.
		Jonah did not want to follow God's order but was prevailed upon to do so after having seen that he could not avoid doing so because God is master of the entire universe.
		For example, it is possible that Jonah (meaning "dove") represents Israel, the fish represents Babylon, the time in the fish the Babylonian exile and the expulsion of Jonah from the fish represents God's return of Israel to its own land in the late 6th century BCE.

	Following Christ - Jonah, a Fish and a Vine
		Jonah's disobedience in his initial call was one thing, perhaps understandable due to the magnitude and improbability of the task, but there is something very dark in his second failure: why do we sometimes prefer misfortune for others, divine judgment, rather than God's grace?
		No, just as the text tells us that "God provided" a fish to save him from his disobedience (1:17), I do not think it is at all coincidental that here again we read the identical phrase that "God provided" a plant to comfort him and teach him a lesson.
		For all its quirkiness Jonah bears a powerful, prophetic word for you and me today about divine grace offered to me even in my own disobedience, and a warning about how easy it is to desire that grace for yourself but to deny it to others.

		Jonah clearly exhibits the Gospel pattern that is evident throughout scripture.
		What makes the latter part of Jonah a little confusing is the chiastic structure of the book.
		By using a consistent pattern of major symbols and themes, such as the tabernacle layout, the creation story, wilderness journey, Jonah, etc, the validity of the Christ-centered interpretation of the early church becomes evident.
