Excerpt: ...2. Her allies will desert her, 5-7. 3. Her wisdom will fail her, 8-9. II. Edom's sin, 10-14 III. Guilt of the nations, 15-16. IV. Judah shall be restored, For Study and Discussion. (1) The sin of pride. (2) The sin of rejoicing in another's misfortune. (3) Punishment according to our sin and of the same kind as was our sin. CHAPTER XX. Jonah and Micah.. Jonah. The Prophet.

Although full of the miraculous element, the evident purpose is to teach great moral and spiritual lessons, and it is unfortunate that its supernatural element has made this book the subject of infidel attack. But the facts, though extraordinary, are in no way contradictory or inconsistent. Indeed, Mr. Driver has well said that "no doubt the outlines of the narrative are historical." Christ spoke of Jonah and accredited it by likening his own death for three days to Jonah's three days in the fish's belly.
