  • 1-24-21 Sermon
    1-24-21 "The Trouble with Mercy" Jonah 3:1-5, 10; 4:1-5 Central Christian Church David A. Shirey The reading began with the words, “The word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time, saying, “Get up, go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim to it the message that I tell you.” If this is the “second time” God instructed Jonah to go to Ninevah, what happened the first time? Well, the first time is at the beginning of Chapter 1 when God says, “Arise, go to Ninevah.. and cry against it; for their wickedness has come up before me” (Jonah 1:1, 2). “Go to Ninevah,” God says. Ninevah—capitol city of Assyria. Assyria, the nation that destroyed Israel in 721 B.C. Assyria, the nation that then subjugated and oppressed the southern kingdom of Judah for almost 100 years. Assyria: present-day Iraq. The book of Jonah begins with a prophet called up for duty—drafted to serve in the Persian Gulf as a missionary to his nation’s bitterest foe. Well, Jonah was a draft-dodger. He said, “Go to Ninevah? Nothin’ doin’!” and rather than heading north to Canada, he fled west toward Tarshish. Ninevah was due east by land. Jonah sailed due west by sea. Caught the first ship out of Joppa the next morning and went AWOL from the Lord’s command. Tarshish, many scholars believe, was a coastal city in Spain. Think Acapulco. Maui. Shangri-la. In other words, a much more preferable place to serve God than Ninevah.

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1997 NATIONAL ACADEMIES PRESS WASHINGTON D.C. ERNEST GLEN WEVER October 16, 1902–September 4, 1991 BY JACK VERNON E WERE DRIVING from Princeton, N.J., to Hibernia, N.␣ J., Wwhen I asked Glen Wever, “What do we know about hearing in bats?” He answered, “About all we know is what Donald Griffin has written; that is, they detect and catch their prey by echo location, a term invented by Griffin. We really know nothing about their hearing ability except that it must be amazing; after all, they do with their ears what the rest of us do with our eyes.” This conversation took place over forty years ago. Glen Wever and I were driving to Hibernia to try to lo- cate an abandoned zinc mine that we had heard was the home of hibernating bats. We were on a bat-collecting trip, the first of many to follow, from which we hoped to acquire some bats (Myotis Lucifugus, as it turned out) for experi- mental purposes. We planned to record the AC cochlear potentials from the bats’ inner ears, which, at that time, had never been done. A filling-station attendant in Hibernia directed us to the zinc mine, where we found the entrance blocked with a heavy steel plate and a sign that read “KEEP OUT.” Left to my own devices, I think I would have obeyed the sign, but Glen said, “I think we can just manage to crawl 371 372 BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS under that barricade.” We proceeded to do just that.
