Afte After Reading The Book Of Jonah

Runaway, rebellion, and shocking; these are 3 word in which best describe the story of Jonah. Though a exceedingly short book in the Bible, only 4 chapter long, Jonah in nonetheless a significant book in the Bible. We are not told much about the “prophet;” (if he can even be called that) but what we do know makes us question how and why he was chosen by God to deliver a very important message that literally had the fate of an entire city riding on its delivery. We can, however, conclude book of Jonah is most definitely written by a single author; this is evident in its unified theme and style. The author of Jonah is relatively unknown. However, it is possible, but unlikely, that Jonah himself is the author. It is difficult to see a man with such stubbornness and childish actions wrote this

This chapter is dedicated to the relationship between the narrative and dialogue aspects of the biblical text and how that relationship can grant readers insight into the nature of the characters as well as foreshadow future events.

Eswine spent a great amount of time discussion preaching from narrative text. He went into depth discussing how one determines the “big idea” of a narrative. In his discussion of the “divine comment” method, Eswine noted that the “divine comment” is a statement that “highlights the governing theme of the passage” (62), and surfaces after the climax. Preachers are able to recognize dominant and subordinate ideas once the “divine comment” is discerned. When it comes to preaching narratives, Eswine suggested that one not shy away from using an inductive form.

The first lesson that the story of Jonah accentuates is that “God is the sovereign Creator,” which is a lesson that can

Jonah seemed to favor his teacher, Ms.Carwell. Jonah would often ask his teacher to come to his home for a visit. Ms. Carwell never visited Jonah’s home (at least not during my observations or to my knowledge) so Jonah would frequently remind his teacher that she still had not come to his house. Jonah was never mad or upset when he reminded his teacher to visit him rather his tone suggested that this was simply a fact and she should visit as soon as possible. Jonah is confident when interacting with others. He approaches others and initiates play. I did not witness any aggression towards his fellow classmates during my observations, in fact, jonah is very gentle and considerate towards others when it time to play and share with others.Jonah

The second theme, prayer, occupies the majority of Chapter 2, specifically verses 3-10, the "Psalm of Thanksgiving". This is thought to have been a later addition to the story, due to the fact that Jonah had not been saved yet. (Anchor 939) However,

I have never known the Bible as such a rich text of ancient literature or appreciated the value of the stories it told beyond a religious standpoint. I find how engaging some of the books of the Bible can be at times with their varied characters and messages that reward close readers with hidden meanings and themes. My experience with each book varied, since each had distinctive features such as the style of debates in Job, the comparisons and descriptions in Song of Solomon, and the cryptic and bizarre storytelling of the Book of Revelations. Some of the readings took me aback and confused me, which caused me to often sit in silence during class and wait to see how other people interpreted the text. Others fascinated me, causing me to try

The bible can be very hard to understand if it is not read in the correct manner. Each book in the bible contains their own style of writing. Before you read a book in the bible you should recognize the genre that is used. The reason why it is important to have a clear understanding of the genre is because it helps one understand the possible outcome of the story. For example one knows that a romantic genre story will end with a blossoming relationship. Genre classification helps stories make sense.

The first 39 books of the larger work called the Bible, is called the Old Testament. The Bible itself is arguably the best selling and most read book of all time, yet it’s well known to be quite challenging to read through and understand. The Old Testament portion of the Bible, notably the most difficult portion of the Bible for most to study and follow, yields 39 books from multiple authors, and spans over 4000 years of crucial world and church history. If that were not enough to take on, the Old Testament comes our way through multiple styles of authorship and formats, including but not limited to, books of history, law, proverbs, ethics,
