The City of Nineveh
Very Large:
Jonah 3:3 (ESV)
… Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, three days’ journey in breadth.
Very Wicked:
Nahum 3:1 (ESV)
Woe to the bloody city,
all full of lies and plunder—
no end to the prey!
Call of Jonah
The Human Viewpoint
Jonah wondered...
hopeless
dangerous
don’t want to go...
Prophets and Kings (Section 2—Prophets of the Northern Kingdom)
As the prophet thought of the difficulties and seeming impossibilities of this commission, he was tempted to question the wisdom of the call.
From a human viewpoint it seemed as if nothing could be gained by proclaiming such a message in that proud city.
He forgot for the moment that the God whom he served was all-wise and all-powerful.
While he hesitated, still doubting, Satan overwhelmed him with discouragement.
The prophet was seized with a great dread, and he “rose up to flee unto Tarshish.”
Going to Joppa, and finding there a ship ready to sail, “he paid the fare thereof and went down into it, to go with them.”
—PK 266
He believed Satan
not God...
They can’t be saved...
Jonah 1:3 (ESV)
But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord.
He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish.
So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the Lord.
