1 | Did Jonah die in the belly of the fish? | Jon 2:2 | MJH | 211897 | ||
Interesting question. I never thought about it, but may have to now.... The verse you quote however, has him crying out which doesn't fit with him being dead. Also, the sea, particularly the Mediterranean Sea in a storm, was seen as a place of death, chaos, and fear -- the Abyss. To referrer to it as Sheol would fit the historical context of Jonah’s day. Under the seas was a huge mystery, a frightening chaotic place where once you go under, you never return. For Jonah at the time, though still conscious, he presumed that once down there he was as good as dead and in Sheol, the place of death, already. But, that's my off the top of my head response. MJH |
