Description

This book is a detailed study of one of the most fascinating Old Testament prophets. The author paints a clear view of the historical background of Jonah and brings to life many practical messages for today. “Jonah is much more than a ‘fish story,’ In fact only three verses out of a total of 84 deal with the fish!” This study examines the even still common emotions of being angry with God, allowing personal feelings to become a wall between one another, and self-pity. This book will be very helpful in home Bible study or classroom use.
