Jonah 14
What words do you use to express your anger? Generally, part of that
expression involves informing the offending party of his or her wrong.
But what do you do when the offending party is God? The story of the
prophet Jonah reaches its climax in an exasperation-filled conversation.
During the period of the kings, the exploitation and treachery of
Nineveh, Israel's enemy, had come to God's attention, so God sent Jonah
to cry ( ) against their evil () . Jonah recognized, however, that
God's warning was an offer of forgiveness for his enemies, so he refused
the instruction ultimately choosing suicide over mercy. Jonah, however,
was the one rescued. Indeed, as the prophet testified, "Salvation (
)
is from God."
Jonah declared God's message to Nineveh. The people recognized
their peril and from great ( ) to small ( ) they covered ()
themselves with sackcloth () . They responded to God with the same
question and answer we read in Joel 2:14, "Who ( ) knows ( ?) He
may turn back (), and He may relent () ."
Jonah is distressed () . Jonah is angry with God. Professor Robert
Denton observes the expression of God's character in the words of
Hebrew Scripture, and sums up the prophet's quandary beautifully:
"Ps. ciii does not merely quote the first part of the Exodus
credo . . . but it is altogether suffused with its spirit. This is
even more true of Jonah, the entire plot of which revolves
around a prophet's pusillanimous refusal to accept the clear
implications of one of Israel's basic creeds: viz., that Yahweh
is not a god merely of Israel's soil and race, but exercises
universal power and benevolence, His power extending even
to the seemingly alien sea, and His benevolence limited only
by men's willingness, anywhere, to hear His voice."1
