Radio Broadcast Transcript Book of Jonah continued; Book of Micah By Charles Feinberg Charles Feinberg: ... He was sure up this place, and he was very angry [inaudible] he almost. He almost popped a tonsil and he prayed unto the lord, you mean to tell me a man that was our sympathy with the lord would prayer. He don't know man, he prayed unto the lord, he sure did, the scripture said so and said “I, pray the, oh lord was not this mah”. He is instructing God didn't I tell you. He has to prove himself right even when he is wrong. His wrong is all out of door. When I was yet in my country, that's what I meant, wouldn't I right? Therefore I pled before, unto tarsus when I knew, oh underscore that knew. If that wears your bible out I’ll get you a new one. For I knew that though art a gracious God, and merciful slow to anger (It’s one of those beautiful statements concerning the character of God), and every word of it is right and true. Merciful, slow to anger, great kindness, and repentance of evil, means if lord we just give you the [Inaudible] indication of a change. You’re gonna deal in grace and in life. For that’s the nature of your heart. Is it as you’re apparent, is it your thought “wait till I catch my youngling.” In this, I’ll give him the whopping of his life. Now, God isn't there, sitting in the highest heaven, just to see us fall. How do you know? Because when we did, an infinite price, he sent the lord Jesus, for therefor an hour oh lord, take out this [Sp?] in my life from me. Life didn't see worth living anymore, for it is better for me to die than to live. Think of it, then the lord said, God said, “he is really gone overboard now, but I better reason with him. I’m sure that Jonah, I made Jonah. I’m sure, he has a mind that can think, yeah” now let’s get with it. Number one Jonah: and so duth doith though well to be angry, and you know he comes back with him? Oh he was angry, and Jonah went out of the city sun on the east side of the city and Feinberg. Book of Jonah Continued; Book of Micah there made a booth for himself and sat under it in the shay. Oh he was going to have some real outdoor living now you see. He wasn't going to suffer anything. Not a bit of it, not a bit of it. So he, he gets himself position and that booth, I tell you seriously, [Inaudible] that booth was one of the greatest places of instruction in all of the world. And he sat under it in the shadow till he might see what would become of the city. Because that fourth verse, the question there, could have been understood by Jonah to say “well for all you know Jonah how do you know that I’m through with my plans of destroying Nineveh, how do you know that what their repentance has only been in outward form only a semblance, not real. So, he sat under it that it might suit what would become of the city.” and the Lord God said “Now we are going to move in closely and teach him some of the lessons of his life that he never learned before.” God prepared, you see who it is, God prepared a gourd, let it come up over Jonah might be a shadow over his head deliver him from his grief, so Jonah was continually glad of the gore; first time of the whole book he was glad, because he was getting something out of it. And when that sun beats down you'd want protection. Oh yes, you flee for protection, he was thrilled, and why was it a gourd? Because it didn't require tending, it didn't require a lot of attention, it didn't require a lot of thought, an occupation. God wants to teach him something. You got a lot of benefit out of something you never did anything on. He’s exceedingly glad of the gourd, only time he was glad. That God prepared a... he prepared a gourd in verse 6 and verse 7. God prepared a worm. When the morning rose the next day and it smoked the gourd that it withered. He would just see… Jonah what he looked at it he, he was withered himself. And if that weren't enough, oh I tell you he’s, he’s going to get his comeuppance the little boy would say, and came to pass when the sun did rise, and it does, that God prepared a [Inaudible} east wind, and the east wind the sirocco, s-i-r-o-c-c-o [inaudible] you can feel out dry out your bones. God prepared the Page 2 of 13 Feinberg. Book of Jonah Continued; Book of Micah [Inaudible] East wind and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah that he fainted and wished it in himself to die. He was the most contrary critter, creature. When he was in the [Inaudible] he wanted to be out, and now that he is out, he wants to die. He doesn't know what wants. Well will God no wonder, and wished in himself to die, and said its better for me to die than to live. God said to Jonah all these three verses, you know there, there here in the book, and they’re going to exist for all eternity. God said to Jonah, doith thou well to be angry for the gourd, he said I certainly do, I'm about as angry as anybody can get. He says, “I do well to be angry even unto death.” Now, you have climax. Here’s the climax. Why is verse 10 with verse 11 the climax? Because here, heared beloved, the heart of God is revealed. Now let’s not skip over it, but its God say then said the lord "though has had pity on that gourd, you surely did, because it serves you." Now Gods pressing home the lesson of these experiences in Jonah's life. Since he had affection for the gourd that gave him comfort and shade he's got to be shown how he tried to deny God his love for those more important than the gourd, and verse 10 shows, here he is, for with that has not labored neither [inaudible] to the gourd, came up in the night and perished in the. A thing so ephemeral, so ethereal, so passing, so unstable, you have such tremendous affection for. How, Jonah, how unthinking can you be? Shows why a plant like the gourd with a rapid growth was chosen, if it had been a plant that grew slowly he would’ve had to water it, he would’ve had to tend it, he would’ve had to care for it. In that case, the rebuke wouldn't have been as strong. God was saying to Jonah If you became so attached to that gourd because it served you, and gratified your desires, a gourd on which you expended no thought, no labor, no toil, no sacrifice, no planting, no watering, no tending, no pruning. A gourd of such short duration grows up quickly and it hastily passes away. Shall I not permit my love and pity to flow forth unstintingly to multitudes of my creatures, the work of my hands? The crown of all my Page 3 of 13 Feinberg. Book of Jonah Continued; Book of Micah creed you ask. Nurture, fend, provided for by me. Those who will never go out of existence, was there ever such irresistible logic, was there ever such boundless love and pity, but my dear friend this chapter doesn't end at the tenth, the climax is in the eleventh verse. Perished in the ninth, you… had pity on the gourd, now watch, verse 11, “should not I spare Nineveh that great city, and which are more than six score thousand.” How much would that be? Six score thousand? [Chatter] Hundred and twenty thousand, okay, “persons that cannot discern between there right hand and there left hand and also much [inaudible] they can’t discern between there right hand and there left hand” those are not automobile drivers, [Laughter] No. See? You were so concerned about this gourd, [inaudible] is a sexual Innovalues [Sp?] and then you where denying my heart and would allow me spend near to that great city. More than six score thousands persons that cannot discern between there right hand and there left, a hundred and twenty thousand. That is supposed to one fifth of the population that can't discern these areas. How much is a hundred twenty thousand times five.

The last two words. Also, which is in italic, much cattle.

  • Jonah's Rescue
    The Journal of Ministry & Theology 90 Jonah’s Rescue: What Are the Implications for Today? (Jonah 1:17-2:10) Dr. Wayne Slusser Assistant Dean Associate Professor of New Testament Baptist Bible Seminary South Abington Twp., Pennsylvania PART ONE: INTRODUCTION The book of Jonah is a straightforward narrative. The central piece of the story, however, could be the poetry of Jonah’s prayer in chapter two. The nature of the book is unlike any of the other prophetic books found in the Old Testament (hereafter, OT). It is more of an account of Jonah’s experiences rather than a collection of prophetic messages. But what is it about this book that evangelicals seek to critique and defend its historicity (historical analysis), offer different structural layouts (structural analysis), raise alternative interpretations (theological analysis), and propose various genre classifications (literary analysis)? Typically, what is at the center of the majority of these arguments is Jonah’s psalm found in chapter 2; thus an examination of Jonah 1:17-2:10 is all the more important. The purpose of this article is to examine Jonah’s prayer. There are four sections to the article. Part one deals with the introductory issues: history, literary, theology, and genre. Part two discusses the identification of the prayer; that is, should it be classified as a lament psalm or declarative praise psalm? The psalm’s identification is crucial. Due to its interpretive implications and therefore significant present-day application, part three analyzes the psalm’s role within the context of the whole book. Is the psalm out of place? An exegetical and contextual analysis is also presented.

  • Fact Sheet for “The Problem with Psalms” Jonah 2 Pastor Bob Singer 03/11/2018
    Fact Sheet for “The Problem with Psalms” Jonah 2 Pastor Bob Singer 03/11/2018 We normally think of Psalms as that 150 chapter book in the middle of our Bibles. But psalms also show up in other places, like the book of Jonah. But there is a problem with Jonah’s psalm that is instructional for us today. See if you can get a hint of it before I point it out. Review Jonah 1 to start. 2:1 ¶ Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the belly of the fish, Jonah prayed while he was in the stomach of that fish, but of course he wrote it down after he was back on land. This prayer we have here was not a plea for deliverance, but a psalm of thanksgiving to God for using the fish to save him from drowning. Jonah had prayed for deliverance (verses 2 and 7), but that prayer was not recorded here. Instead this was Jonah’s psalm after he was again safe on dry land. And Jonah knew that this great fish was God’s means of delivering him. He prayed…. 2 saying, "I called out to the LORD, out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and you heard my voice. Jonah was drowning when he cried out to the LORD. The LORD’s answer to Jonah was to be swallowed by the fish. The “belly of Sheol” does not refer to the belly of the fish. Instead it refers to the fear of death that gripped Jonah as he floundered in the waves.

  • Week 1- Jonah Chapter 1 As We Begin to Study the Book of Jonah, It's
    Jonah Week 1- Jonah Chapter 1 As we begin to study the book of Jonah, it’s important that we take the time to properly establish the context of this story. Doing so will help us rightly understand and apply the word of the Lord to our lives. The questions below are given as a guide to help us to think through each passage and lead our weekly discussions. Set aside some time each week to read the Scripture, answer the corresponding questions, and consider the application section. Our prayer is that God will use this study in a mighty way as He works in and through us. Jonah 1:1-3 ESV ​ ​ ​ ​ “Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it, for their evil has come up before me.” 3 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.” - How is Jonah identified in verse 1? What do we know about Jonah from the rest of Scripture (2 Kings 14:25)? - What does the Lord tell Jonah to do? What do we learn about Nineveh in verse 2? What else do we know about Nineveh (Genesis 10:8-11, Jonah 3:3, 4:11)? - How does Jonah respond to the Lord’s call? Where is Tarshish in relation to Nineveh? - Numerous times in verse 3, we see that Jonah went to Tarshish to flee from the presence of the Lord.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE BOOK OF JONAH BOTTOM LINE INTRODUCTION THIS BOOK CONTAINS THE BIGGEST FISH STORY OF ALL TIME. BUT IT ISN’T WHAT YOU THINK IT IS. Almost everyone has heard the story of the huge sea creature that swallowed Jonah, and about Jonah’s pitiful prayer for deliverance while inside its stomach (ch. 1-2). But the real fish story takes place in chapter 3. To understand this, consider an event that would transpire some seven centuries later in northern Israel: “And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. And they straightway left their nets, and followed him” (Mt. 4:18-20). In this passage Jesus taught that the “fish” God is looking to catch are sinful men, and the real “fishermen” are soul winners.

  • The Appropriation of the Book of Jonah in 4Th Century Christianity by Theodore of Mopsuestia and Jerome of Stridon
    Katharina Bracht The appropriation of the book of Jonah in 4th century Christianity by Theodore of Mopsuestia and Jerome of Stridon Abstract: The book of Jonah (c. 430–330 BCE) is one of the Old Testament books that was received in its Septuagint version in Early Christianity. This paper deals with the two earliest extant commentaries on the book of Jonah: the Greek com- mentary by Theodore of Mopsuestia (written in the last quarter of the 4th cen- tury) and the Latin commentary by Jerome (396 CE). Written independently at about the same time, both comment verse-by-verse on the whole book of Jonah. We will investigate and compare the two authors’ communicative strategies within a triangle of pretext, readership, and commentary, i.e. which techniques they employ in order to appropriate the c. 800 year old, canonical book of Jonah to its contemporary readers, how they interpret their current situation by means of reception of the ancient text, which norms and values they derive from it, and to what extent they attribute to it a formative effect concerning Christian identity in their own times. 1 Introduction The book of Jonah (c. 430–330 BCE) is one of the books of the Hebrew Bible thatwasreceivedinitsSeptuagintversioninEarlyChristianity,thoughin quite different aspects: Matthew 12:39–41 (c. 80 CE) offers a Christological in- terpretation of Jonah’s three-day stay in the belly of the fish, whereas the fresco paintings and sarcophagus reliefs in the Roman catacombs (3rd century CE) apply Jonah’s rest under the plant to the eschatological rest of the individ- ual Christian.1 These divergent traditions of Jonah-reception form the back- ground of the two earliest extant commentaries on the book of Jonah:the Greek commentary by Theodore of Mopsuestia – the most important exegete of the School of Antioch (written in the last quarter of the 4th century) – and the Latin commentary by Jerome (396 CE).

Perhaps you are saying, “God, you can have everything in my life… but not that.” “I know that God wants this from me, but if I do that… or if I give that up, I’m going to be missing out.” That’s exactly what Adam and Eve fell for in the Garden… they were fooled into believing that God was holding His best back from them.

  • Jonah and the "Gourd"
    JONAH AND THE “GOURD” AT NINEVEH: CONSEQUENCES OF A CLASSIC MISTRANSLATION Jules Janick Department of Horticulture & Landscape Architecture, Purdue University, 625 Agriculture Mall Drive, West Lafayette, IN 47907-2010 Harry S. Paris Agricultural Research Organization, Newe Ya’ar Research Center, P. O. Box 1021, Ramat Yishay 30-095, Israel ADDITIONAL INDEX WORDS. Citrullus colocynthis, Lagenaria siceraria, Ricinus communis, plant iconography ABSTRACT. The fast-growing plant referred to in the biblical Book of Jonah is most often translated into English as “gourd.” However, this is a mistranslation that dates to the appended Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, in which the Hebrew word qiqayon (castor, Ricinus communis, Euphorbiaceae) was transformed into the somewhat similar-sounding Greek word kolokynthi (colocynth, Citrullus colocynthis). In translation of the Greek into Latin, kolokynthi became the similar-sounding cucurbita (gourd). This is reflected in early iconography, the plant most often depicted being a long-fruited Lagenaria siceraria (bottle or calabash gourd), a fast-growing climber. ucurbits are frequent subjects of art, literature, and myth. Since ancient times, people the world over have been fascinated by Cthe fast growth of cucurbits, from seed to a rampant vine bearing prominent, attractive fruits within two or three months. Metaphorically, the cucurbits are associated with warmth, sunshine, health, vitality, fertility, sexuality, and abundance, leading to mirth and laughter (Norrman and Haarberg, 1980). Cucurbit fruits have been valued by humans for thousands of years, for food and a multitude of other uses. The Cucurbitaceae are extremely polymorphic for fruit size, shape, and color and the fruits of some species can exhibit great similarity to those of others (Chester, 1951).

While a number of verbs in LXX Jonah have textual variants such as differences of number, lexeme, or prepositional prefix, twenty-three times in LXX Jonah the difference in the textual variant is between verb forms that differ in terms of verbal aspect: imperfect versus aorist indicative, present versus aorist infinitive or imperative, etc. This paper will examine the textual data on LXX Jonah with reference to the variants that differ in verbal aspect. It will examine the problem of these variants from two angles: first, it will 1 John A.
