This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
JONAH CHAPTER 3
Jonah, being sent again, preacheth the overthrow of Nineveh, Jon_3:1-4. Upon their repentance, Jon_3:5-9, God repenteth him of the evil, Joh_3:10.
And, after that Jonah had been well disciplined for his contumacy, and was set at liberty,
the word of the Lord came; the command, or the prophetic Spirit: see Joh_1:1.
The second time; the first time Jonah rebels against the command, now, better prepared and humbled, he is tried again, God doth give him the gift of prophecy, and by that signifies his reconciliation to him, and admits him into his old station.
