Introduction   1   2   3   4   Obadiah   Micah
Introduction to Jonah
PROBABLY Jonah himself was the penman of this book. In 2 Kings xiv, 25, we find, that he was of Gath-hepher in Galilee, a city that belongs to the tribe of Zebulon. We find also, that he was a messenger of mercy to Israel in the reign of Jeroboam the second. We have here a remarkable instance of God's mercy, toward repenting sinners. And in Jonah we have a most remarkable type, of our Lord's burial and resurrection.

I. Jonah disobeys the command of God, ver. 1-3.

II. Is arrested by a storm, ver. 4-6.

III. Discovered to be the cause of the storm, ver. 7-10.

IV. Cast into the sea and swallowed by a fish, ver. 11-17.
