The Book of Jonah is a parable of mercy. It may be read as an allegory, one of sin and repentance, with God’s loving mercy and forgiveness. Jonah and the whale is a favorite story among children.

The prophet Jonah – יוֹנָה – is mentioned in II Kings 14:25 during the reign of Jeroboam II (786-746 BC) of Israel (the Northern Kingdom), before the Assyrians under King Shalmaneser conquered the Northern Kingdom of Israel in 722 BC. Jonah was a disobedient prophet, who ran away rather than perform God’s mission. He is punished and swallowed by a great fish, but repents and prays, and receives God’s abundant mercy, and carries out his mission to Nineveh, the capital of Assyria. When Jonah becomes upset over God’s mercy towards Israel’s enemy, God teaches him a lesson. 

The Prayer of Jonah

1 Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish’s belly,
2 And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me;
out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.
3 For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas;
and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
4 Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight, yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.
5 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul:
the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me forever:
yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O LORD my God.
7 When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD:
and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.
8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving;
I will pay that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD.

10 And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
