1 | Did Jonah die in the belly of the fish? | Jon 2:2 | Nevvvvine | 211932 | ||
Hi Val: Just for clarification, as soon as Jonah was cast into the sea, it was calmed. When Jonah got to Ninevah, the people had already repented, and he got ("MAD") not depressed. Jonah wanted God to destroy them, because of all he had gone through, he was sooooooo mad he sat down until God did distroy them, and ended up with sun stroke. In Gods Love Nevvvvine |

2 | Did Jonah die in the belly of the fish? | Jon 2:2 | Val | 211938 | ||
Hello Newwine my friend, I was looking at Jonah where he himself says in verse 3 "You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the floods surrounded me; all your billows and your waves passed over me." Please look up the defination of "billows". Also at this time the description of waves pounding him or just the sheer weight of the waters and possibly the undercurrent took him under the surface of the water. He went down as you see in verse 6. In Jonah's distress and sure death he calls to the only One who can help him, the Lord who rescues him. In Chapter 3 verse 3 Jonah begins his walk through Ninevah. As a result of Jonah's proclamation Nineveh believed God verse 5. Then down in verse 10 God sees their repentance and relented from the disaster that He had said He would bring upon them, and He did not do it. In Chapter 4 verse 8 Jonah wished death for himself. Because of the context I rendered Jonah depressed. Earlier he had cried out to the Lord to save him. Now he is so downtrodden he wants to die, verse 8 "It is better for me to die than to live". In the book of Jonah nowhere does it say God distroyed Ninevah instead it says quite the opposite verse 10. Your sister in Christ - Val |
