- 0:00Steph: Too
- 0:00Steph: many
- 0:00Steph: people
- 0:00Steph: focus
- 0:01Steph: on
- 0:01Steph: the
- 0:01Steph: great
- 0:02Steph: fish
- 0:02Steph: that
- 0:02Steph: swallowed
- 0:02Steph: Jonah
- 0:03Steph: and
- 0:03Steph: miss
- 0:03Steph: the
- 0:03Steph: great
- 0:04Steph: God.
- 0:04Steph: I'm
- 0:05Steph: Stephanie
- 0:05Steph: Hickox,
- 0:06Steph: and
- 0:06Steph: this
- 0:06Steph: is
- 0:06Steph: The
- 0:06Steph: Dwelling
- 0:06Steph: Place
- 0:07Steph: from
- 0:07Steph: Entrusted
- 0:07Steph: Ministries.
- 0:08Steph: Today
- 0:08Steph: we'll
- 0:09Steph: dive
- 0:09Steph: into
- 0:10Steph: the
- 0:10Steph: Book
- 0:10Steph: of
- 0:10Steph: Jonah.
- 0:11Steph: And
- 0:11Steph: as
- 0:11Steph: Bill
- 0:11Steph: Thrasher
- 0:12Steph: reminds
- 0:12Steph: us
- 0:12Steph: with
- 0:12Steph: that
- 0:12Steph: quote,
- 0:13Steph: this
- 0:13Steph: book
- 0:13Steph: begins
- 0:14Steph: and
- 0:14Steph: ends
- 0:14Steph: with
- 0:14Steph: God.
- 0:15Steph: As
- 0:15Steph: with
- 0:15Steph: all
- 0:15Steph: of
- 0:16Steph: scripture,
- 0:16Steph: He
- 0:17Steph: is
- 0:17Steph: the
- 0:17Steph: main
- 0:17Steph: character,
- 0:18Steph: and
- 0:18Steph: you
- 0:18Steph: will
- 0:18Steph: love
- 0:19Steph: what
- 0:19Steph: this
- 0:19Steph: book
- 0:19Steph: reveals
- 0:19Steph: about
- 0:20Steph: His
- 0:20Steph: heart.
- 0:20Steph: It
- 0:20Steph: doesn't
- 0:21Steph: explicitly
- 0:21Steph: state
- 0:22Steph: that
- 0:22Steph: it
- 0:22Steph: was
- 0:22Steph: written
- 0:22Steph: by
- 0:22Steph: Jonah,
- 0:23Steph: but
- 0:23Steph: it
- 0:23Steph: speaks
- 0:24Steph: of
- 0:24Steph: such
- 0:24Steph: intimate
- 0:25Steph: details
- 0:25Steph: that
- 0:26Steph: only
- 0:26Steph: he
- 0:26Steph: would've
- 0:26Steph: known
- 0:27Steph: the
- 0:27Steph: fact
- 0:27Steph: that
- 0:28Steph: it's
- 0:28Steph: written
- 0:28Steph: in
- 0:28Steph: the
- 0:28Steph: third
- 0:28Steph: person
- 0:29Steph: doesn't
- 0:29Steph: negate
- 0:30Steph: him
- 0:30Steph: from
- 0:30Steph: being
- 0:30Steph: the
- 0:30Steph: probable
- 0:31Steph: author.
- 0:31Steph: Many
- 0:32Steph: prophets,
- 0:32Steph: including
- 0:33Steph: Moses,
- 0:33Steph: Samuel,
- 0:34Steph: and
- 0:34Steph: Daniel,
- 0:34Steph: sometimes
- 0:35Steph: wrote
- 0:35Steph: in
- 0:35Steph: the
- 0:35Steph: third
- 0:36Steph: person
- 0:36Steph: And
- 0:36Steph: I
- 0:37Steph: think
- 0:37Steph: this
- 0:37Steph: is
- 0:37Steph: awesome
- 0:38Steph: that
- 0:38Steph: Jonah
- 0:38Steph: probably
- 0:38Steph: wrote
- 0:39Steph: the
- 0:39Steph: book
- 0:39Steph: because
- 0:39Steph: it
- 0:40Steph: doesn't
- 0:40Steph: present
- 0:40Steph: him
- 0:41Steph: in
- 0:41Steph: a
- 0:41Steph: great
- 0:41Steph: light.
- 0:41Steph: He
- 0:42Steph: doesn't
- 0:42Steph: sugarcoat
- 0:42Steph: his
- 0:42Steph: rebellion
- 0:43Steph: and
- 0:43Steph: defiance
- 0:44Steph: against
- 0:44Steph: God's
- 0:44Steph: commands,
- 0:45Steph: but
- 0:45Steph: instead
- 0:45Steph: highlights
- 0:46Steph: the
- 0:46Steph: merciful,
- 0:47Steph: steadfast
- 0:48Steph: love
- 0:48Steph: of
- 0:48Steph: the
- 0:48Steph: Lord
- 0:49Steph: that
- 0:49Steph: is
- 0:49Steph: available
- 0:49Steph: for
- 0:49Steph: all
- 0:50Steph: people
- 0:50Steph: We
- 0:50Steph: know
- 0:51Steph: this
- 0:51Steph: was
- 0:51Steph: written
- 0:51Steph: before
- 0:51Steph: 722
- 0:53Steph: BC
- 0:53Steph: When
- 0:53Steph: the
- 0:53Steph: Assyrians
- 0:54Steph: captured
- 0:54Steph: the
- 0:54Steph: Northern
- 0:55Steph: Kingdom,
- 0:56Steph: the
- 0:56Steph: 760s
- 0:56Steph: BC
- 0:57Steph: seemed
- 0:57Steph: to
- 0:57Steph: be
- 0:58Steph: the
- 0:58Steph: most
- 0:58Steph: realistic
- 0:58Steph: time
- 0:59Steph: period
- 0:59Steph: for
- 0:59Steph: this.
- 0:59Steph: Jonah
- 1:00Steph: was
- 1:00Steph: from
- 1:00Steph: an
- 1:00Steph: area
- 1:00Steph: very
- 1:01Steph: close
- 1:01Steph: to
- 1:01Steph: where
- 1:01Steph: Jesus
- 1:02Steph: was
- 1:02Steph: raised
- 1:02Steph: in
- 1:02Steph: Nazareth.
- 1:03Steph: But
- 1:03Steph: unlike
- 1:03Steph: every
- 1:04Steph: other
- 1:04Steph: prophet
- 1:04Steph: in
- 1:04Steph: scripture,
- 1:05Steph: God
- 1:06Steph: didn't
- 1:06Steph: give
- 1:06Steph: him
- 1:06Steph: a
- 1:06Steph: message
- 1:07Steph: for
- 1:07Steph: His
- 1:07Steph: own
- 1:07Steph: people,
- 1:08Steph: but
- 1:08Steph: for
- 1:08Steph: another
- 1:09Steph: nation
- 1:09Steph: Do
- 1:09Steph: you
- 1:09Steph: remember
- 1:10Steph: the
- 1:10Steph: widow
- 1:10Steph: that
- 1:11Steph: Elijah
- 1:11Steph: ministered
- 1:12Steph: to?
- 1:12Steph: Jewish
- 1:12Steph: tradition
- 1:13Steph: said
- 1:13Steph: that
- 1:13Steph: Jonah
- 1:14Steph: was
- 1:14Steph: the
- 1:14Steph: son
- 1:15Steph: that
- 1:15Steph: Elijah
- 1:15Steph: raised
- 1:15Steph: from
- 1:16Steph: the
- 1:16Steph: dead.
- 1:16Steph: We
- 1:16Steph: can't
- 1:17Steph: confirm
- 1:17Steph: it,
- 1:17Steph: but
- 1:18Steph: it's
- 1:18Steph: very
- 1:18Steph: fascinating
- 1:19Steph: to
- 1:19Steph: think
- 1:19Steph: about.
- 1:19Steph: And
- 1:20Steph: certainly
- 1:20Steph: the
- 1:20Steph: question
- 1:20Steph: that
- 1:21Steph: can't
- 1:21Steph: be
- 1:21Steph: avoided
- 1:21Steph: with
- 1:22Steph: Jonah
- 1:22Steph: is,
- 1:23Steph: is
- 1:23Steph: this
- 1:23Steph: allegory?
- 1:24Steph: Is
- 1:24Steph: it
- 1:24Steph: a
- 1:24Steph: parable,
- 1:25Steph: or
- 1:25Steph: is
- 1:25Steph: it
- 1:26Steph: real
- 1:26Steph: historical
- 1:26Steph: fact?
- 1:27Steph: Well,
- 1:28Steph: in
- 1:28Steph: none
- 1:28Steph: of
- 1:29Steph: the
- 1:29Steph: other
- 1:29Steph: parables
- 1:29Steph: in
- 1:29Steph: scripture
- 1:30Steph: do
- 1:30Steph: the
- 1:30Steph: characters
- 1:30Steph: ever
- 1:31Steph: have
- 1:31Steph: names
- 1:31Steph: or
- 1:32Steph: are
- 1:32Steph: actual
- 1:32Steph: place
- 1:33Steph: names
- 1:33Steph: listed
- 1:34Steph: And
- 1:34Steph: Jonah
- 1:34Steph: himself
- 1:35Steph: is
- 1:35Steph: listed
- 1:35Steph: in
- 1:35Steph: Second
- 1:36Steph: Kings
- 1:36Steph: fourteen.
- 1:36Steph: Jewish
- 1:37Steph: tradition
- 1:37Steph: accepted
- 1:38Steph: him
- 1:38Steph: as
- 1:38Steph: a
- 1:38Steph: real
- 1:39Steph: historical
- 1:39Steph: person,
- 1:40Steph: and
- 1:40Steph: Josephus
- 1:41Steph: and
- 1:41Steph: other
- 1:41Steph: historians
- 1:42Steph: of
- 1:42Steph: the
- 1:42Steph: time
- 1:42Steph: referenced
- 1:43Steph: him.
- 1:43Steph: But
- 1:43Steph: what
- 1:43Steph: more
- 1:44Steph: do
- 1:44Steph: we
- 1:44Steph: need
- 1:44Steph: than
- 1:44Steph: the
- 1:44Steph: fact
- 1:45Steph: that
- 1:45Steph: Jesus
- 1:45Steph: himself
- 1:46Steph: referenced
- 1:46Steph: Jonah?
- 1:47Steph: And
- 1:47Steph: pointed
- 1:47Steph: to
- 1:47Steph: the
- 1:47Steph: miracle
- 1:48Steph: in
- 1:48Steph: this
- 1:48Steph: book
- 1:49Steph: as
- 1:49Steph: foreshadowing
- 1:50Steph: His
- 1:50Steph: own
- 1:50Steph: death
- 1:51Steph: and
- 1:51Steph: resurrection
- 1:51Steph: All
- 1:52Steph: of
- 1:52Steph: this
- 1:52Steph: tells
- 1:52Steph: us
- 1:53Steph: this
- 1:53Steph: is
- 1:53Steph: a
- 1:53Steph: historical
- 1:54Steph: account.
- 1:55Steph: And
- 1:55Steph: though
- 1:55Steph: the
- 1:55Steph: idea
- 1:56Steph: of
- 1:56Steph: being
- 1:56Steph: swallowed
- 1:56Steph: by
- 1:56Steph: a
- 1:56Steph: fish
- 1:57Steph: seems
- 1:57Steph: miraculous,
- 1:58Steph: living
- 1:58Steph: to
- 1:59Steph: tell
- 1:59Steph: about
- 1:59Steph: it
- 2:00Steph: is
- 2:00Steph: the
- 2:00Steph: greatest
- 2:00Steph: miracle
- 2:01Steph: in
- 2:01Steph: this
- 2:01Steph: book.
- 2:01Steph: But
- 2:01Steph: none
- 2:02Steph: of
- 2:02Steph: it
- 2:02Steph: is
- 2:02Steph: outside
- 2:02Steph: the
- 2:03Steph: realm
- 2:03Steph: of
- 2:03Steph: the
- 2:03Steph: God
- 2:03Steph: that
- 2:04Steph: we've
- 2:04Steph: studied,
- 2:04Steph: who's
- 2:05Steph: performed
- 2:05Steph: countless
- 2:05Steph: other
- 2:06Steph: miracles
- 2:07Steph: Jonah
- 2:07Steph: was
- 2:07Steph: prophesying
- 2:08Steph: during
- 2:08Steph: the
- 2:08Steph: time
- 2:08Steph: of
- 2:08Steph: Jeroboam
- 2:09Steph: II.
- 2:09Steph: He's
- 2:10Steph: considered
- 2:10Steph: the
- 2:10Steph: most
- 2:10Steph: powerful
- 2:11Steph: king
- 2:11Steph: that
- 2:11Steph: ruled
- 2:12Steph: in
- 2:12Steph: the
- 2:12Steph: Northern
- 2:12Steph: Kingdom
- 2:13Steph: because
- 2:13Steph: he
- 2:13Steph: so
- 2:13Steph: effectively
- 2:14Steph: expanded
- 2:15Steph: the
- 2:15Steph: borders,
- 2:16Steph: extending
- 2:16Steph: them
- 2:16Steph: to
- 2:16Steph: almost
- 2:17Steph: where
- 2:17Steph: they
- 2:17Steph: were
- 2:17Steph: during
- 2:18Steph: the
- 2:18Steph: time
- 2:18Steph: of
- 2:18Steph: David
- 2:18Steph: and
- 2:18Steph: Solomon.
- 2:19Steph: But
- 2:19Steph: spiritually
- 2:20Steph: and
- 2:20Steph: morally,
- 2:21Steph: the
- 2:21Steph: nation
- 2:21Steph: was
- 2:21Steph: depraved.
- 2:22Steph: And
- 2:22Steph: after
- 2:23Steph: countless
- 2:23Steph: decades
- 2:24Steph: of
- 2:24Steph: mercy,
- 2:24Steph: the
- 2:25Steph: Lord
- 2:25Steph: had
- 2:25Steph: another
- 2:25Steph: plan
- 2:26Steph: to
- 2:26Steph: bring
- 2:26Steph: about
- 2:26Steph: their
- 2:26Steph: repentance,
- 2:27Steph: that
- 2:27Steph: he
- 2:27Steph: would
- 2:28Steph: eventually
- 2:28Steph: lead
- 2:28Steph: them
- 2:29Steph: into
- 2:29Steph: captivity
- 2:30Steph: by
- 2:30Steph: the
- 2:30Steph: Assyrians.
- 2:31Steph: And
- 2:31Steph: this
- 2:31Steph: is
- 2:31Steph: the
- 2:31Steph: nation
- 2:32Steph: to
- 2:32Steph: which
- 2:32Steph: Jonah
- 2:32Steph: is
- 2:33Steph: sent.
- 2:33Steph: Assyria
- 2:34Steph: was
- 2:34Steph: a
- 2:34Steph: powerful
- 2:35Steph: Mesopotamia
- 2:35Steph: nation
- 2:36Steph: Mesopotamia
- 2:37Steph: means
- 2:37Steph: the
- 2:37Steph: land
- 2:37Steph: between
- 2:38Steph: the
- 2:38Steph: rivers,
- 2:38Steph: and
- 2:39Steph: if
- 2:39Steph: you
- 2:39Steph: think
- 2:39Steph: about
- 2:39Steph: modern-day
- 2:40Steph: Iraq,
- 2:40Steph: where
- 2:41Steph: the
- 2:41Steph: Tigris
- 2:41Steph: and
- 2:41Steph: Euphrates
- 2:42Steph: rivers
- 2:42Steph: flow,
- 2:43Steph: Assyria
- 2:43Steph: was
- 2:43Steph: largely
- 2:44Steph: to
- 2:44Steph: the
- 2:44Steph: north
- 2:45Steph: a
- 2:45Steph: key
- 2:45Steph: city
- 2:46Steph: in
- 2:46Steph: the
- 2:46Steph: Empire
- 2:46Steph: was
- 2:46Steph: Nineveh,
- 2:47Steph: and
- 2:47Steph: it
- 2:47Steph: may
- 2:48Steph: have
- 2:48Steph: been
- 2:48Steph: the
- 2:48Steph: largest
- 2:49Steph: city
- 2:49Steph: in
- 2:49Steph: existence
- 2:50Steph: at
- 2:50Steph: that
- 2:50Steph: time.
- 2:50Steph: Archeologists
- 2:51Steph: have
- 2:51Steph: confirmed
- 2:52Steph: how
- 2:52Steph: expansive
- 2:52Steph: it
- 2:53Steph: was.
- 2:53Steph: And
- 2:53Steph: although
- 2:53Steph: you've
- 2:54Steph: probably
- 2:54Steph: heard
- 2:54Steph: about
- 2:55Steph: the
- 2:55Steph: Hanging
- 2:55Steph: Gardens
- 2:55Steph: of
- 2:55Steph: Babylon
- 2:56Steph: I
- 2:56Steph: had
- 2:56Steph: the
- 2:57Steph: honor
- 2:57Steph: of
- 2:57Steph: learning
- 2:58Steph: from
- 2:58Steph: archaeologist
- 2:58Steph: Ted
- 2:59Steph: Wright
- 2:59Steph: that
- 2:59Steph: it
- 2:59Steph: was
- 3:00Steph: most
- 3:00Steph: likely
- 3:00Steph: the
- 3:01Steph: Hanging
- 3:01Steph: Gardens
- 3:01Steph: of
- 3:02Steph: Nineveh
- 3:02Steph: Nineveh
- 3:03Steph: was
- 3:03Steph: founded
- 3:03Steph: by
- 3:04Steph: Nimrod,
- 3:04Steph: the
- 3:04Steph: grandson
- 3:05Steph: of
- 3:05Steph: Noah,
- 3:06Steph: all
- 3:06Steph: the
- 3:06Steph: way
- 3:06Steph: back
- 3:07Steph: in
- 3:07Steph: Genesis
- 3:07Steph: 10
- 3:07Steph: it
- 3:08Steph: mentions
- 3:08Steph: it
- 3:08Steph: And
- 3:08Steph: historically,
- 3:09Steph: there
- 3:10Steph: were
- 3:10Steph: two
- 3:10Steph: plagues
- 3:11Steph: that
- 3:11Steph: happened
- 3:11Steph: and
- 3:11Steph: a
- 3:12Steph: solar
- 3:12Steph: eclipse
- 3:13Steph: that
- 3:13Steph: perhaps
- 3:13Steph: set
- 3:14Steph: the
- 3:14Steph: stage
- 3:15Steph: for
- 3:15Steph: these
- 3:15Steph: incredibly
- 3:16Steph: superstitious
- 3:17Steph: Assyrians
- 3:17Steph: to
- 3:17Steph: respond
- 3:18Steph: to
- 3:18Steph: Jonah's
- 3:18Steph: message
- 3:19Steph: For
- 3:19Steph: today's
- 3:19Steph: reading,
- 3:20Steph: we'll
- 3:20Steph: read
- 3:20Steph: a
- 3:20Steph: portion
- 3:21Steph: from
- 3:21Steph: each
- 3:21Steph: of
- 3:21Steph: the
- 3:22Steph: four
- 3:22Steph: chapters
- 3:22Steph: that
- 3:22Steph: help
- 3:23Steph: us
- 3:23Steph: see
- 3:23Steph: Jonah's
- 3:23Steph: running
- 3:24Steph: from
- 3:24Steph: God's
- 3:24Steph: will,
- 3:25Steph: submitting
- 3:25Steph: to
- 3:25Steph: it,
- 3:26Steph: fulfilling
- 3:26Steph: his
- 3:27Steph: call,
- 3:27Steph: and
- 3:27Steph: then
- 3:28Steph: questioning
- 3:28Steph: God's
- 3:29Steph: purposes
- 3:29Steph: But
- 3:29Steph: as
- 3:30Steph: I
- 3:30Steph: said,
- 3:30Steph: the
- 3:31Steph: message
- 3:31Steph: we
- 3:31Steph: need
- 3:31Steph: to
- 3:31Steph: walk
- 3:32Steph: away
- 3:32Steph: with
- 3:32Steph: is
- 3:32Steph: the
- 3:32Steph: Lord's
- 3:33Steph: undeniable
- 3:34Steph: Love
- 3:34Steph: for
- 3:34Steph: the
- 3:34Steph: Nations
- 3:35Steph: And
- 3:35Steph: that
- 3:35Steph: his
- 3:35Steph: mercy
- 3:35Steph: is
- 3:36Steph: available
- 3:36Steph: for
- 3:36Steph: even
- 3:37Steph: the
- 3:37Steph: vilest
- 3:38Steph: of
- 3:38Steph: sinners
- 3:38Steph: Chapter
- 3:39Steph: 1
- 3:39Steph: begins,
- 3:40Steph: "Now
- 3:40Steph: the
- 3:40Steph: word
- 3:40Steph: of
- 3:40Steph: the
- 3:40Steph: Lord
- 3:41Steph: came
- 3:41Steph: to
- 3:41Steph: Jonah,
- 3:42Steph: the
- 3:42Steph: son
- 3:42Steph: of
- 3:42Steph: Amittai,
- 3:42Steph: saying,
- 3:43Steph: Arise,
- 3:44Steph: go
- 3:44Steph: to
- 3:44Steph: Nineveh,
- 3:45Steph: that
- 3:45Steph: great
- 3:45Steph: city,
- 3:46Steph: and
- 3:46Steph: call
- 3:46Steph: out
- 3:46Steph: against
- 3:47Steph: it.
- 3:47Steph: For
- 3:47Steph: their
- 3:47Steph: evil
- 3:48Steph: has
- 3:48Steph: come
- 3:48Steph: up
- 3:48Steph: before
- 3:49Steph: me.'
- 3:49Steph: But
- 3:49Steph: Jonah
- 3:50Steph: rose
- 3:50Steph: to
- 3:50Steph: flee
- 3:50Steph: to
- 3:50Steph: Tarshish
- 3:51Steph: from
- 3:51Steph: the
- 3:52Steph: presence
- 3:52Steph: of
- 3:52Steph: the
- 3:52Steph: Lord.
- 3:53Steph: He
- 3:53Steph: went
- 3:53Steph: down
- 3:53Steph: to
- 3:53Steph: Joppa
- 3:54Steph: and
- 3:54Steph: found
- 3:54Steph: a
- 3:54Steph: ship
- 3:54Steph: going
- 3:55Steph: to
- 3:55Steph: Tarshish.
- 3:55Steph: So
- 3:56Steph: he
- 3:56Steph: paid
- 3:56Steph: the
- 3:56Steph: fare
- 3:57Steph: and
- 3:57Steph: went
- 3:57Steph: down
- 3:57Steph: to
- 3:57Steph: it
- 3:58Steph: to
- 3:58Steph: go
- 3:58Steph: with
- 3:58Steph: them
- 3:58Steph: to
- 3:58Steph: Tarshish,
- 3:59Steph: away
- 4:00Steph: from
- 4:00Steph: the
- 4:00Steph: presence
- 4:00Steph: of
- 4:00Steph: the
- 4:00Steph: Lord."
- 4:01Steph: Jonah
- 4:01Steph: is
- 4:02Steph: defying
- 4:02Steph: God's
- 4:02Steph: orders,
- 4:03Steph: and
- 4:03Steph: he
- 4:03Steph: thinks
- 4:04Steph: he
- 4:04Steph: can
- 4:04Steph: escape.
- 4:04Steph: Instead
- 4:05Steph: of
- 4:05Steph: going
- 4:05Steph: to
- 4:05Steph: the
- 4:05Steph: east
- 4:06Steph: where
- 4:06Steph: God
- 4:06Steph: told
- 4:06Steph: him
- 4:06Steph: to,
- 4:07Steph: He
- 4:07Steph: attempts
- 4:07Steph: to
- 4:08Steph: go
- 4:08Steph: as
- 4:08Steph: far
- 4:08Steph: west
- 4:09Steph: as
- 4:09Steph: he
- 4:09Steph: can.
- 4:09Steph: The
- 4:09Steph: Lord
- 4:10Steph: sends
- 4:10Steph: an
- 4:10Steph: intense
- 4:11Steph: storm,
- 4:11Steph: more
- 4:11Steph: extreme
- 4:12Steph: than
- 4:12Steph: the
- 4:12Steph: sailors
- 4:13Steph: had
- 4:13Steph: experienced
- 4:13Steph: before.
- 4:14Steph: They're
- 4:14Steph: terrified
- 4:15Steph: and
- 4:15Steph: crying
- 4:15Steph: out
- 4:15Steph: to
- 4:16Steph: their
- 4:16Steph: false
- 4:16Steph: gods
- 4:16Steph: while
- 4:17Steph: Jonah
- 4:17Steph: takes
- 4:17Steph: a
- 4:18Steph: nap.
- 4:18Steph: They
- 4:18Steph: wake
- 4:19Steph: him
- 4:19Steph: up
- 4:19Steph: and
- 4:19Steph: cast
- 4:20Steph: lots
- 4:20Steph: to
- 4:20Steph: find
- 4:20Steph: out
- 4:20Steph: why
- 4:21Steph: this
- 4:21Steph: wild
- 4:21Steph: storm
- 4:22Steph: is
- 4:22Steph: tormenting
- 4:22Steph: them.
- 4:22Steph: The
- 4:23Steph: lot
- 4:23Steph: falls
- 4:23Steph: to
- 4:23Steph: Jonah,
- 4:24Steph: and
- 4:24Steph: in
- 4:24Steph: 1:9
- 4:25Steph: he
- 4:25Steph: says,
- 4:25Steph: I
- 4:25Steph: am
- 4:26Steph: a
- 4:26Steph: Hebrew
- 4:26Steph: and
- 4:26Steph: I
- 4:26Steph: fear
- 4:27Steph: the
- 4:27Steph: Lord,
- 4:27Steph: the
- 4:27Steph: God
- 4:28Steph: of
- 4:28Steph: heaven
- 4:28Steph: who
- 4:28Steph: made
- 4:28Steph: the
- 4:29Steph: sea
- 4:29Steph: and
- 4:29Steph: the
- 4:29Steph: dry
- 4:29Steph: land."
- 4:30Steph: This
- 4:30Steph: description
- 4:31Steph: of
- 4:31Steph: God
- 4:31Steph: is
- 4:31Steph: intentional
- 4:32Steph: The
- 4:32Steph: MacArthur
- 4:33Steph: commentary
- 4:33Steph: says
- 4:33Steph: that
- 4:33Steph: these
- 4:34Steph: sailors
- 4:34Steph: were
- 4:34Steph: most
- 4:35Steph: likely
- 4:35Steph: from
- 4:35Steph: Phoenicia,
- 4:36Steph: the
- 4:36Steph: center
- 4:36Steph: of
- 4:37Steph: Baal
- 4:37Steph: worship.
- 4:37Steph: And
- 4:38Steph: since
- 4:38Steph: Baal
- 4:38Steph: was
- 4:38Steph: known
- 4:38Steph: as
- 4:38Steph: the
- 4:39Steph: sky
- 4:39Steph: god
- 4:39Steph: claiming
- 4:40Steph: that
- 4:40Steph: the
- 4:40Steph: Hebrew
- 4:40Steph: God
- 4:41Steph: was
- 4:41Steph: the
- 4:41Steph: God
- 4:41Steph: of
- 4:41Steph: the
- 4:41Steph: sea
- 4:42Steph: and
- 4:42Steph: the
- 4:42Steph: dry
- 4:42Steph: land
- 4:43Steph: pointed
- 4:43Steph: to
- 4:43Steph: his
- 4:43Steph: supremacy
- 4:44Steph: The
- 4:45Steph: sailors
- 4:45Steph: say
- 4:45Steph: to
- 4:45Steph: Jonah,
- 4:46Steph: What
- 4:46Steph: shall
- 4:46Steph: we
- 4:46Steph: do
- 4:47Steph: to
- 4:47Steph: you
- 4:47Steph: that
- 4:47Steph: the
- 4:47Steph: sea
- 4:47Steph: may
- 4:48Steph: quiet
- 4:48Steph: down
- 4:48Steph: for
- 4:48Steph: us?"
- 4:49Steph: For
- 4:49Steph: the
- 4:49Steph: sea
- 4:49Steph: grew
- 4:49Steph: more
- 4:50Steph: and
- 4:50Steph: more
- 4:50Steph: tempestuous.
- 4:51Steph: He
- 4:51Steph: said
- 4:51Steph: to
- 4:52Steph: them,
- 4:52Steph: Pick
- 4:52Steph: me
- 4:52Steph: up
- 4:53Steph: and
- 4:53Steph: hurl
- 4:53Steph: me
- 4:53Steph: into
- 4:53Steph: the
- 4:54Steph: sea.
- 4:54Steph: Then
- 4:54Steph: the
- 4:54Steph: sea
- 4:55Steph: will
- 4:55Steph: quiet
- 4:55Steph: down
- 4:55Steph: for
- 4:55Steph: you,
- 4:56Steph: for
- 4:56Steph: I
- 4:56Steph: know
- 4:57Steph: it
- 4:57Steph: is
- 4:57Steph: because
- 4:57Steph: of
- 4:57Steph: me
- 4:58Steph: that
- 4:58Steph: this
- 4:58Steph: great
- 4:58Steph: tempest
- 4:59Steph: has
- 4:59Steph: come
- 4:59Steph: upon
- 4:59Steph: you."
- 5:00Steph: Nevertheless,
- 5:01Steph: the
- 5:01Steph: men
- 5:01Steph: rowed
- 5:01Steph: hard
- 5:02Steph: to
- 5:02Steph: get
- 5:02Steph: back
- 5:02Steph: to
- 5:02Steph: dry
- 5:03Steph: land,
- 5:03Steph: but
- 5:03Steph: they
- 5:03Steph: could
- 5:04Steph: not,
- 5:04Steph: for
- 5:04Steph: the
- 5:04Steph: sea
- 5:05Steph: grew
- 5:05Steph: more
- 5:05Steph: and
- 5:05Steph: more
- 5:05Steph: tempestuous
- 5:06Steph: against
- 5:07Steph: them.
- 5:07Steph: Therefore,
- 5:07Steph: they
- 5:08Steph: called
- 5:08Steph: out
- 5:08Steph: to
- 5:08Steph: the
- 5:08Steph: Lord,
- 5:09Steph: O
- 5:09Steph: Lord,
- 5:09Steph: let
- 5:09Steph: us
- 5:10Steph: not
- 5:10Steph: perish
- 5:10Steph: for
- 5:10Steph: this
- 5:10Steph: man's
- 5:11Steph: life,
- 5:11Steph: and
- 5:11Steph: lay
- 5:12Steph: not
- 5:12Steph: on
- 5:12Steph: us
- 5:12Steph: innocent
- 5:13Steph: blood,
- 5:13Steph: for
- 5:13Steph: you,
- 5:14Steph: O
- 5:14Steph: Lord,
- 5:14Steph: have
- 5:14Steph: done
- 5:14Steph: as
- 5:15Steph: it
- 5:15Steph: pleased
- 5:15Steph: you."
- 5:15Steph: So
- 5:16Steph: they
- 5:16Steph: picked
- 5:16Steph: up
- 5:16Steph: Jonah
- 5:17Steph: and
- 5:17Steph: hurled
- 5:17Steph: him
- 5:17Steph: into
- 5:17Steph: the
- 5:18Steph: sea,
- 5:18Steph: and
- 5:18Steph: the
- 5:18Steph: sea
- 5:19Steph: ceased
- 5:19Steph: from
- 5:19Steph: its
- 5:19Steph: raging.
- 5:20Steph: Then
- 5:20Steph: the
- 5:20Steph: men
- 5:21Steph: feared
- 5:21Steph: the
- 5:21Steph: Lord
- 5:21Steph: exceedingly,
- 5:22Steph: and
- 5:23Steph: they
- 5:23Steph: offered
- 5:23Steph: a
- 5:23Steph: sacrifice
- 5:24Steph: to
- 5:24Steph: the
- 5:24Steph: Lord
- 5:24Steph: and
- 5:24Steph: made
- 5:25Steph: vows.
- 5:25Steph: And
- 5:25Steph: the
- 5:26Steph: Lord
- 5:26Steph: appointed
- 5:26Steph: a
- 5:27Steph: great
- 5:27Steph: fish
- 5:27Steph: to
- 5:28Steph: swallow
- 5:28Steph: up
- 5:28Steph: Jonah,
- 5:29Steph: and
- 5:29Steph: Jonah
- 5:29Steph: was
- 5:29Steph: in
- 5:29Steph: the
- 5:30Steph: belly
- 5:30Steph: of
- 5:30Steph: the
- 5:30Steph: fish
- 5:31Steph: three
- 5:31Steph: days
- 5:31Steph: and
- 5:31Steph: three
- 5:32Steph: nights
- 5:32Steph: isn't
- 5:33Steph: it
- 5:33Steph: striking
- 5:33Steph: how
- 5:33Steph: these
- 5:34Steph: sailors
- 5:34Steph: have
- 5:34Steph: more
- 5:35Steph: fear
- 5:35Steph: of
- 5:35Steph: God
- 5:35Steph: than
- 5:35Steph: Jonah
- 5:36Steph: does?
- 5:36Steph: And
- 5:36Steph: that
- 5:36Steph: they
- 5:37Steph: have
- 5:37Steph: such
- 5:37Steph: compassion
- 5:38Steph: for
- 5:38Steph: him,
- 5:38Steph: trying
- 5:38Steph: to
- 5:39Steph: protect
- 5:39Steph: his
- 5:39Steph: life.
- 5:40Steph: The
- 5:40Steph: Lord
- 5:40Steph: in
- 5:40Steph: His
- 5:40Steph: goodness
- 5:41Steph: uses
- 5:42Steph: this
- 5:42Steph: storm
- 5:42Steph: to
- 5:42Steph: turn
- 5:42Steph: their
- 5:43Steph: hearts
- 5:43Steph: to
- 5:43Steph: Him
- 5:43Steph: as
- 5:43Steph: well
- 5:44Steph: After
- 5:44Steph: those
- 5:45Steph: three
- 5:45Steph: days
- 5:45Steph: and
- 5:45Steph: three
- 5:45Steph: nights,
- 5:46Steph: chapter
- 5:46Steph: two
- 5:46Steph: tells
- 5:47Steph: us,
- 5:47Steph: Then
- 5:48Steph: Jonah
- 5:48Steph: prayed
- 5:48Steph: to
- 5:49Steph: the
- 5:49Steph: Lord
- 5:49Steph: his
- 5:49Steph: God
- 5:49Steph: from
- 5:49Steph: the
- 5:50Steph: belly
- 5:50Steph: of
- 5:50Steph: the
- 5:50Steph: fish."
- 5:51Steph: Saying,
- 5:51Steph: "I
- 5:51Steph: called
- 5:51Steph: out
- 5:52Steph: to
- 5:52Steph: the
- 5:52Steph: Lord
- 5:52Steph: out
- 5:52Steph: of
- 5:52Steph: my
- 5:52Steph: distress,
- 5:53Steph: and
- 5:53Steph: he
- 5:53Steph: answered
- 5:54Steph: me.
- 5:54Steph: Out
- 5:54Steph: of
- 5:54Steph: the
- 5:54Steph: belly
- 5:55Steph: of
- 5:55Steph: Sheol
- 5:55Steph: I
- 5:55Steph: cried,
- 5:56Steph: and
- 5:56Steph: you
- 5:56Steph: heard
- 5:57Steph: my
- 5:57Steph: voice."
- 5:57Steph: To
- 5:58Steph: which
- 5:58Steph: I
- 5:58Steph: need
- 5:58Steph: to
- 5:58Steph: say,
- 5:59Steph: Then,
- 5:59Steph: Jonah?
- 6:00Steph: Then?
- 6:01Steph: You
- 6:01Steph: were
- 6:01Steph: three
- 6:02Steph: days
- 6:02Steph: and
- 6:02Steph: three
- 6:02Steph: nights
- 6:03Steph: in
- 6:03Steph: the
- 6:03Steph: pitch-black
- 6:04Steph: putrid
- 6:05Steph: stomach
- 6:05Steph: of
- 6:05Steph: a
- 6:05Steph: sea
- 6:05Steph: creature
- 6:06Steph: before
- 6:06Steph: you
- 6:06Steph: cried
- 6:07Steph: out
- 6:07Steph: to
- 6:07Steph: the
- 6:07Steph: Lord?"
- 6:07Steph: It
- 6:08Steph: seems
- 6:08Steph: God
- 6:08Steph: chose
- 6:08Steph: one
- 6:09Steph: of
- 6:09Steph: the
- 6:09Steph: most
- 6:09Steph: stubborn
- 6:10Steph: people
- 6:10Steph: He
- 6:10Steph: possibly
- 6:11Steph: could
- 6:11Steph: to
- 6:11Steph: carry
- 6:11Steph: out
- 6:12Steph: His
- 6:12Steph: mission.
- 6:13Steph: It
- 6:13Steph: may
- 6:13Steph: have
- 6:13Steph: taken
- 6:13Steph: a
- 6:13Steph: while
- 6:14Steph: for
- 6:14Steph: Jonah
- 6:14Steph: to
- 6:14Steph: pray,
- 6:15Steph: but
- 6:15Steph: when
- 6:15Steph: he
- 6:15Steph: did,
- 6:16Steph: he
- 6:16Steph: prayed
- 6:16Steph: to
- 6:16Steph: the
- 6:17Steph: Lord
- 6:17Steph: his
- 6:17Steph: God
- 6:18Steph: I'm
- 6:18Steph: going
- 6:18Steph: to
- 6:18Steph: link
- 6:18Steph: an
- 6:18Steph: article
- 6:19Steph: by
- 6:19Steph: the
- 6:19Steph: Armstrong
- 6:20Steph: Biblical
- 6:20Steph: Archaeology
- 6:21Steph: Institute.
- 6:21Steph: They
- 6:22Steph: break
- 6:22Steph: down
- 6:22Steph: the
- 6:22Steph: science
- 6:23Steph: of
- 6:23Steph: how
- 6:23Steph: it
- 6:23Steph: is
- 6:23Steph: certainly
- 6:24Steph: possible
- 6:24Steph: for
- 6:24Steph: Jonah
- 6:25Steph: to
- 6:25Steph: be
- 6:25Steph: swallowed
- 6:25Steph: by
- 6:26Steph: this
- 6:26Steph: great
- 6:26Steph: fish
- 6:27Steph: And
- 6:27Steph: here's
- 6:27Steph: a
- 6:27Steph: side
- 6:27Steph: note,
- 6:28Steph: but
- 6:28Steph: I'm
- 6:28Steph: astounded
- 6:29Steph: that
- 6:29Steph: the
- 6:29Steph: Assyrians
- 6:30Steph: actually
- 6:30Steph: worshiped
- 6:31Steph: a
- 6:31Steph: fish
- 6:31Steph: goddess
- 6:32Steph: named
- 6:32Steph: Nancy
- 6:33Steph: and
- 6:33Steph: Dagon,
- 6:34Steph: who
- 6:34Steph: was
- 6:34Steph: represented
- 6:34Steph: as
- 6:35Steph: half
- 6:35Steph: man
- 6:35Steph: and
- 6:35Steph: half
- 6:35Steph: fish.
- 6:36Steph: Isn't
- 6:36Steph: that
- 6:36Steph: an
- 6:36Steph: interesting
- 6:37Steph: connection?
- 6:38Steph: That
- 6:38Steph: the
- 6:38Steph: God
- 6:38Steph: of
- 6:38Steph: heaven
- 6:39Steph: and
- 6:39Steph: Earth
- 6:39Steph: would
- 6:39Steph: use
- 6:40Steph: a
- 6:40Steph: sea
- 6:40Steph: creature
- 6:41Steph: to
- 6:41Steph: preserve
- 6:41Steph: and
- 6:42Steph: humble
- 6:42Steph: Jonah
- 6:43Steph: So
- 6:43Steph: he
- 6:43Steph: could
- 6:43Steph: deliver
- 6:44Steph: a
- 6:44Steph: message
- 6:44Steph: sparing
- 6:45Steph: these
- 6:45Steph: people
- 6:45Steph: from
- 6:45Steph: their
- 6:46Steph: worship
- 6:46Steph: of
- 6:46Steph: fish
- 6:46Steph: gods
- 6:47Steph: and
- 6:47Steph: goddesses
- 6:48Steph: after
- 6:48Steph: Jonah
- 6:48Steph: describes
- 6:49Steph: his
- 6:49Steph: circumstances
- 6:50Steph: in
- 6:50Steph: the
- 6:50Steph: belly
- 6:50Steph: of
- 6:50Steph: the
- 6:50Steph: creature,
- 6:51Steph: in
- 6:51Steph: verse
- 6:51Steph: seven
- 6:52Steph: he
- 6:52Steph: says,
- 6:52Steph: When
- 6:53Steph: my
- 6:53Steph: life
- 6:53Steph: was
- 6:53Steph: fainting
- 6:54Steph: away,
- 6:54Steph: I
- 6:54Steph: remembered
- 6:55Steph: the
- 6:55Steph: Lord,
- 6:56Steph: and
- 6:56Steph: my
- 6:56Steph: prayer
- 6:56Steph: came
- 6:56Steph: to
- 6:57Steph: you
- 6:57Steph: into
- 6:57Steph: your
- 6:57Steph: holy
- 6:57Steph: temple.
- 6:58Steph: those
- 6:58Steph: who
- 6:59Steph: pay
- 6:59Steph: regard
- 6:59Steph: to
- 6:59Steph: vain
- 7:00Steph: idols
- 7:00Steph: forsake
- 7:01Steph: the
- 7:01Steph: hope
- 7:01Steph: of
- 7:01Steph: steadfast
- 7:02Steph: love.
- 7:02Steph: But
- 7:02Steph: I,
- 7:03Steph: with
- 7:03Steph: the
- 7:03Steph: voice
- 7:03Steph: of
- 7:03Steph: thanksgiving,
- 7:04Steph: will
- 7:04Steph: sacrifice
- 7:05Steph: to
- 7:05Steph: you.
- 7:05Steph: What
- 7:06Steph: I
- 7:06Steph: have
- 7:06Steph: vowed
- 7:06Steph: I
- 7:06Steph: will
- 7:06Steph: pay.
- 7:07Steph: Salvation
- 7:08Steph: belongs
- 7:08Steph: to
- 7:08Steph: the
- 7:08Steph: Lord."
- 7:09Steph: And
- 7:09Steph: the
- 7:09Steph: Lord
- 7:09Steph: spoke
- 7:10Steph: to
- 7:10Steph: the
- 7:10Steph: fish,
- 7:10Steph: and
- 7:11Steph: it
- 7:11Steph: vomited
- 7:11Steph: Jonah
- 7:12Steph: out
- 7:12Steph: onto
- 7:12Steph: the
- 7:12Steph: dry
- 7:12Steph: land
- 7:13Steph: Some
- 7:14Steph: credit
- 7:14Steph: Jonah
- 7:14Steph: with
- 7:14Steph: repentance
- 7:15Steph: here,
- 7:15Steph: and
- 7:15Steph: some
- 7:16Steph: say
- 7:16Steph: he
- 7:16Steph: really
- 7:17Steph: didn't
- 7:17Steph: own
- 7:17Steph: his
- 7:17Steph: choice
- 7:18Steph: to
- 7:18Steph: run
- 7:18Steph: from
- 7:18Steph: the
- 7:18Steph: Lord.
- 7:19Steph: But
- 7:19Steph: he
- 7:19Steph: certainly
- 7:19Steph: does
- 7:19Steph: commit
- 7:20Steph: to
- 7:20Steph: obey
- 7:20Steph: now
- 7:21Steph: and
- 7:21Steph: in
- 7:21Steph: chapter
- 7:21Steph: three,
- 7:22Steph: Then
- 7:22Steph: the
- 7:22Steph: word
- 7:22Steph: of
- 7:23Steph: the
- 7:23Steph: Lord
- 7:23Steph: came
- 7:23Steph: to
- 7:23Steph: Jonah
- 7:24Steph: the
- 7:24Steph: second
- 7:24Steph: time,
- 7:24Steph: saying,
- 7:25Steph: Arise,
- 7:26Steph: go
- 7:26Steph: to
- 7:26Steph: Nineveh,
- 7:26Steph: that
- 7:27Steph: great
- 7:27Steph: city,
- 7:28Steph: and
- 7:28Steph: call
- 7:28Steph: out
- 7:28Steph: against
- 7:29Steph: it
- 7:29Steph: the
- 7:29Steph: message
- 7:29Steph: that
- 7:29Steph: I
- 7:29Steph: tell
- 7:30Steph: you.
- 7:30Steph: So
- 7:30Steph: Jonah
- 7:31Steph: arose
- 7:31Steph: and
- 7:31Steph: went
- 7:31Steph: to
- 7:31Steph: Nineveh.
- 7:32Steph: Jonah
- 7:32Steph: began
- 7:33Steph: to
- 7:33Steph: go
- 7:33Steph: into
- 7:33Steph: the
- 7:33Steph: city,
- 7:34Steph: going
- 7:34Steph: a
- 7:34Steph: day's
- 7:34Steph: journey,
- 7:35Steph: and
- 7:35Steph: he
- 7:35Steph: called
- 7:35Steph: out,
- 7:36Steph: Yet
- 7:36Steph: forty
- 7:36Steph: days,
- 7:37Steph: and
- 7:37Steph: Nineveh
- 7:37Steph: shall
- 7:38Steph: be
- 7:38Steph: overthrown.
- 7:39Steph: And
- 7:39Steph: the
- 7:39Steph: people
- 7:39Steph: of
- 7:40Steph: Nineveh
- 7:40Steph: believed
- 7:40Steph: God.
- 7:41Steph: They
- 7:41Steph: called
- 7:41Steph: for
- 7:42Steph: a
- 7:42Steph: fast
- 7:42Steph: and
- 7:42Steph: put
- 7:43Steph: on
- 7:43Steph: sackcloth,
- 7:43Steph: from
- 7:44Steph: the
- 7:44Steph: greatest
- 7:44Steph: of
- 7:44Steph: them
- 7:45Steph: to
- 7:45Steph: the
- 7:45Steph: least
- 7:45Steph: of
- 7:45Steph: them.
- 7:46Steph: The
- 7:46Steph: word
- 7:46Steph: reached
- 7:46Steph: the
- 7:46Steph: king
- 7:47Steph: of
- 7:47Steph: Nineveh,
- 7:47Steph: and
- 7:48Steph: he
- 7:48Steph: arose
- 7:48Steph: from
- 7:48Steph: his
- 7:48Steph: throne,
- 7:49Steph: removed
- 7:49Steph: his
- 7:50Steph: robe,
- 7:50Steph: covered
- 7:50Steph: himself
- 7:51Steph: with
- 7:51Steph: sackcloth,
- 7:52Steph: and
- 7:52Steph: sat
- 7:52Steph: in
- 7:52Steph: ashes.
- 7:53Steph: And
- 7:53Steph: he
- 7:53Steph: issued
- 7:54Steph: a
- 7:54Steph: proclamation
- 7:55Steph: and
- 7:55Steph: published
- 7:55Steph: through
- 7:55Steph: Nineveh,
- 7:56Steph: By
- 7:56Steph: the
- 7:56Steph: decree
- 7:57Steph: of
- 7:57Steph: the
- 7:57Steph: king
- 7:57Steph: and
- 7:57Steph: his
- 7:57Steph: nobles:
- 7:58Steph: Let
- 7:58Steph: neither
- 7:59Steph: man
- 7:59Steph: nor
- 7:59Steph: beast,
- 8:00Steph: herd
- 8:01Steph: nor
- 8:01Steph: flock
- 8:01Steph: taste
- 8:01Steph: anything.
- 8:02Steph: Let
- 8:02Steph: them
- 8:02Steph: not
- 8:03Steph: feed
- 8:03Steph: or
- 8:03Steph: drink
- 8:03Steph: water,
- 8:04Steph: but
- 8:04Steph: let
- 8:04Steph: man
- 8:05Steph: and
- 8:05Steph: beast
- 8:05Steph: be
- 8:06Steph: covered
- 8:06Steph: with
- 8:06Steph: sackcloth,
- 8:07Steph: and
- 8:07Steph: let
- 8:07Steph: them
- 8:07Steph: call
- 8:08Steph: out
- 8:08Steph: mightily
- 8:08Steph: to
- 8:08Steph: God.
- 8:09Steph: Let
- 8:09Steph: everyone
- 8:10Steph: turn
- 8:10Steph: from
- 8:10Steph: his
- 8:10Steph: evil
- 8:11Steph: way
- 8:11Steph: and
- 8:11Steph: from
- 8:11Steph: the
- 8:11Steph: violence
- 8:12Steph: that
- 8:12Steph: is
- 8:12Steph: in
- 8:12Steph: his
- 8:12Steph: hands.
- 8:13Steph: Who
- 8:13Steph: knows?
- 8:14Steph: God
- 8:14Steph: may
- 8:14Steph: turn
- 8:15Steph: and
- 8:15Steph: relent,
- 8:15Steph: and
- 8:16Steph: turn
- 8:16Steph: from
- 8:16Steph: his
- 8:16Steph: fierce
- 8:17Steph: anger,
- 8:17Steph: so
- 8:17Steph: that
- 8:17Steph: we
- 8:18Steph: may
- 8:18Steph: not
- 8:18Steph: perish."
- 8:19Steph: When
- 8:19Steph: God
- 8:19Steph: saw
- 8:20Steph: what
- 8:20Steph: they
- 8:20Steph: did
- 8:20Steph: and
- 8:21Steph: how
- 8:21Steph: they
- 8:21Steph: turned
- 8:21Steph: from
- 8:21Steph: their
- 8:22Steph: evil
- 8:22Steph: way,
- 8:22Steph: God
- 8:23Steph: relented
- 8:23Steph: of
- 8:23Steph: the
- 8:23Steph: disaster
- 8:24Steph: that
- 8:24Steph: he
- 8:24Steph: had
- 8:24Steph: said
- 8:25Steph: he
- 8:25Steph: would
- 8:25Steph: do
- 8:25Steph: to
- 8:25Steph: them,
- 8:25Steph: and
- 8:26Steph: he
- 8:26Steph: did
- 8:26Steph: not
- 8:26Steph: do
- 8:26Steph: it
- 8:27Steph: what
- 8:27Steph: is
- 8:27Steph: Jonah's
- 8:28Steph: response
- 8:28Steph: to
- 8:29Steph: the
- 8:29Steph: Assyrians'
- 8:29Steph: repentance?
- 8:30Steph: Chapter
- 8:30Steph: four
- 8:31Steph: states,
- 8:31Steph: But
- 8:31Steph: it
- 8:32Steph: displeased
- 8:32Steph: Jonah
- 8:33Steph: exceedingly,
- 8:34Steph: and
- 8:34Steph: he
- 8:34Steph: was
- 8:34Steph: angry.
- 8:35Steph: And
- 8:35Steph: he
- 8:35Steph: prayed
- 8:35Steph: to
- 8:35Steph: the
- 8:36Steph: Lord
- 8:36Steph: and
- 8:36Steph: said,
- 8:36Steph: Oh
- 8:37Steph: Lord,
- 8:37Steph: is
- 8:37Steph: this
- 8:37Steph: not
- 8:38Steph: what
- 8:38Steph: I
- 8:38Steph: said
- 8:38Steph: when
- 8:38Steph: I
- 8:38Steph: was
- 8:39Steph: yet
- 8:39Steph: in
- 8:39Steph: my
- 8:39Steph: country?
- 8:40Steph: That
- 8:40Steph: is
- 8:40Steph: why
- 8:40Steph: I
- 8:40Steph: made
- 8:40Steph: haste
- 8:41Steph: to
- 8:41Steph: flee
- 8:41Steph: to
- 8:41Steph: Tarshish,
- 8:42Steph: for
- 8:42Steph: I
- 8:42Steph: knew
- 8:43Steph: that
- 8:43Steph: you
- 8:43Steph: are
- 8:43Steph: a
- 8:43Steph: gracious
- 8:44Steph: God
- 8:44Steph: and
- 8:44Steph: merciful,
- 8:45Steph: slow
- 8:46Steph: to
- 8:46Steph: anger,
- 8:46Steph: and
- 8:46Steph: abounding
- 8:47Steph: in
- 8:47Steph: steadfast
- 8:47Steph: love,
- 8:48Steph: and
- 8:48Steph: relenting
- 8:48Steph: from
- 8:49Steph: disaster.'"
- 8:50Steph: Therefore
- 8:50Steph: now,
- 8:50Steph: O
- 8:50Steph: Lord,
- 8:51Steph: please
- 8:51Steph: take
- 8:51Steph: my
- 8:52Steph: life
- 8:52Steph: from
- 8:52Steph: me,
- 8:52Steph: for
- 8:52Steph: it
- 8:53Steph: is
- 8:53Steph: better
- 8:53Steph: for
- 8:53Steph: me
- 8:53Steph: to
- 8:53Steph: die
- 8:54Steph: than
- 8:54Steph: to
- 8:54Steph: live.
- 8:55Steph: And
- 8:55Steph: the
- 8:55Steph: Lord
- 8:55Steph: said,
- 8:56Steph: Do
- 8:56Steph: you
- 8:56Steph: do
- 8:56Steph: well
- 8:57Steph: to
- 8:57Steph: be
- 8:57Steph: angry?"
- 8:58Steph: Doesn't
- 8:58Steph: this
- 8:58Steph: make
- 8:58Steph: you
- 8:59Steph: think
- 8:59Steph: of
- 8:59Steph: God's
- 8:59Steph: intervention
- 9:00Steph: with
- 9:00Steph: Cain
- 9:00Steph: in
- 9:00Steph: Genesis
- 9:01Steph: four?
- 9:01Steph: Next,
- 9:02Steph: Jonah
- 9:02Steph: leaves
- 9:03Steph: the
- 9:03Steph: city
- 9:03Steph: to
- 9:03Steph: watch
- 9:03Steph: and
- 9:04Steph: see
- 9:04Steph: what
- 9:04Steph: will
- 9:04Steph: happen
- 9:05Steph: the
- 9:05Steph: Lord
- 9:05Steph: provides
- 9:05Steph: a
- 9:05Steph: plant
- 9:06Steph: that
- 9:06Steph: grows,
- 9:06Steph: giving
- 9:07Steph: him
- 9:07Steph: shade,
- 9:07Steph: and
- 9:08Steph: it
- 9:08Steph: makes
- 9:08Steph: Jonah
- 9:08Steph: very
- 9:08Steph: happy.
- 9:09Steph: But
- 9:09Steph: then
- 9:09Steph: the
- 9:10Steph: Lord
- 9:10Steph: sends
- 9:10Steph: a
- 9:10Steph: worm
- 9:10Steph: to
- 9:11Steph: eat
- 9:11Steph: it
- 9:11Steph: up
- 9:11Steph: next
- 9:12Steph: he
- 9:12Steph: sends
- 9:12Steph: wind
- 9:13Steph: and
- 9:13Steph: sun
- 9:13Steph: to
- 9:13Steph: weaken
- 9:14Steph: Jonah.
- 9:14Steph: And
- 9:14Steph: Jonah
- 9:15Steph: is
- 9:15Steph: so
- 9:15Steph: angry
- 9:15Steph: about
- 9:16Steph: the
- 9:16Steph: plant
- 9:16Steph: dying,
- 9:17Steph: he
- 9:17Steph: once
- 9:17Steph: again
- 9:17Steph: begs
- 9:18Steph: God
- 9:18Steph: to
- 9:18Steph: let
- 9:18Steph: him
- 9:18Steph: die.
- 9:19Steph: And
- 9:19Steph: the
- 9:19Steph: Lord
- 9:19Steph: again
- 9:20Steph: says,
- 9:20Steph: "Do
- 9:21Steph: you
- 9:21Steph: do
- 9:21Steph: well
- 9:21Steph: to
- 9:21Steph: be
- 9:22Steph: angry
- 9:22Steph: for
- 9:22Steph: the
- 9:22Steph: plant?"
- 9:23Steph: Jonah
- 9:23Steph: responds,
- 9:24Steph: yes,
- 9:24Steph: I
- 9:24Steph: do
- 9:25Steph: well
- 9:25Steph: to
- 9:25Steph: be
- 9:25Steph: angry,
- 9:26Steph: angry
- 9:26Steph: enough
- 9:26Steph: to
- 9:27Steph: die."
- 9:27Steph: And
- 9:27Steph: the
- 9:27Steph: Lord
- 9:28Steph: said,
- 9:28Steph: "You
- 9:29Steph: pity
- 9:29Steph: the
- 9:29Steph: plant
- 9:30Steph: for
- 9:30Steph: which
- 9:30Steph: you
- 9:30Steph: did
- 9:30Steph: not
- 9:30Steph: labor,
- 9:31Steph: nor
- 9:31Steph: did
- 9:32Steph: you
- 9:32Steph: make
- 9:32Steph: it
- 9:32Steph: grow,
- 9:33Steph: which
- 9:33Steph: came
- 9:33Steph: into
- 9:33Steph: being
- 9:34Steph: in
- 9:34Steph: a
- 9:34Steph: night
- 9:34Steph: and
- 9:34Steph: perished
- 9:35Steph: in
- 9:35Steph: a
- 9:35Steph: night.
- 9:35Steph: And
- 9:35Steph: should
- 9:36Steph: not
- 9:36Steph: I
- 9:36Steph: pity
- 9:36Steph: Nineveh,
- 9:37Steph: that
- 9:37Steph: great
- 9:37Steph: city,
- 9:38Steph: in
- 9:38Steph: which
- 9:38Steph: there
- 9:39Steph: are
- 9:39Steph: more
- 9:39Steph: than
- 9:39Steph: a
- 9:39Steph: hundred
- 9:40Steph: and
- 9:40Steph: twenty
- 9:40Steph: thousand
- 9:41Steph: persons
- 9:41Steph: who
- 9:42Steph: do
- 9:42Steph: not
- 9:42Steph: know
- 9:42Steph: their
- 9:42Steph: right
- 9:43Steph: hand
- 9:43Steph: from
- 9:43Steph: their
- 9:43Steph: left,
- 9:44Steph: and
- 9:44Steph: also
- 9:44Steph: much
- 9:45Steph: cattle?"
- 9:45Steph: Don't
- 9:46Steph: you
- 9:46Steph: love
- 9:46Steph: God's
- 9:46Steph: heart
- 9:47Steph: for
- 9:47Steph: these
- 9:47Steph: people?
- 9:48Steph: We
- 9:48Steph: saw
- 9:48Steph: the
- 9:48Steph: absolute
- 9:49Steph: defiance
- 9:49Steph: of
- 9:49Steph: Jonah,
- 9:50Steph: god's
- 9:50Steph: discipline
- 9:51Steph: that
- 9:51Steph: led
- 9:52Steph: to
- 9:52Steph: his
- 9:52Steph: obedience
- 9:53Steph: his
- 9:53Steph: eventual
- 9:54Steph: submission
- 9:54Steph: And
- 9:54Steph: even
- 9:55Steph: though
- 9:55Steph: he
- 9:55Steph: understood
- 9:56Steph: the
- 9:56Steph: goodness
- 9:56Steph: of
- 9:56Steph: the
- 9:56Steph: character
- 9:57Steph: of
- 9:57Steph: God,
- 9:57Steph: he
- 9:57Steph: didn't
- 9:58Steph: share
- 9:58Steph: God's
- 9:58Steph: heart
- 9:58Steph: for
- 9:59Steph: the
- 9:59Steph: Assyrians
- 10:00Steph: We
- 10:00Steph: can
- 10:00Steph: be
- 10:00Steph: really
- 10:00Steph: inspired
- 10:01Steph: by
- 10:01Steph: God's
- 10:01Steph: faithfulness
- 10:02Steph: to
- 10:02Steph: not
- 10:02Steph: give
- 10:03Steph: up
- 10:03Steph: on
- 10:03Steph: Jonah
- 10:03Steph: in
- 10:03Steph: this
- 10:03Steph: book.
- 10:04Steph: God
- 10:04Steph: had
- 10:04Steph: to
- 10:04Steph: discipline
- 10:05Steph: him
- 10:05Steph: in
- 10:05Steph: an
- 10:05Steph: extreme
- 10:06Steph: way,
- 10:06Steph: but
- 10:07Steph: it
- 10:07Steph: was
- 10:07Steph: effective.
- 10:08Steph: If
- 10:08Steph: Jonah's
- 10:08Steph: stubbornness
- 10:09Steph: is
- 10:09Steph: reminding

- 10:25Steph: that
- 10:25Steph: no
- 10:26Steph: one
- 10:26Steph: is
- 10:26Steph: beyond
- 10:26Steph: His
- 10:27Steph: grace
- 10:27Steph: If
- 10:27Steph: I
- 10:27Steph: told
- 10:28Steph: you
- 10:28Steph: to
- 10:28Steph: think
- 10:28Steph: of
- 10:28Steph: the
- 10:28Steph: most
- 10:29Steph: evil
- 10:29Steph: people
- 10:30Steph: on
- 10:30Steph: the
- 10:30Steph: face
- 10:30Steph: of
- 10:30Steph: the
- 10:30Steph: earth
- 10:31Steph: right
- 10:31Steph: now,
- 10:31Steph: who
- 10:31Steph: would
- 10:32Steph: you
- 10:32Steph: think
- 10:32Steph: of?
- 10:33Steph: Maybe
- 10:33Steph: there's
- 10:33Steph: someone
- 10:33Steph: in
- 10:34Steph: your
- 10:34Steph: life
- 10:34Steph: who
- 10:34Steph: has
- 10:34Steph: inexplicably
- 10:36Steph: and
- 10:36Steph: painfully
- 10:36Steph: harmed
- 10:36Steph: you.
- 10:37Steph: If
- 10:37Steph: God
- 10:37Steph: asked
- 10:37Steph: you
- 10:38Steph: to
- 10:38Steph: go
- 10:38Steph: share
- 10:38Steph: the
- 10:38Steph: gospel
- 10:39Steph: with
- 10:39Steph: them,
- 10:39Steph: how
- 10:39Steph: would
- 10:40Steph: you
- 10:40Steph: feel?
- 10:41Steph: It's
- 10:41Steph: possible
- 10:41Steph: that
- 10:42Steph: Jonah
- 10:42Steph: lost
- 10:42Steph: family
- 10:42Steph: members
- 10:43Steph: due
- 10:43Steph: to
- 10:43Steph: the
- 10:43Steph: Assyrians.
- 10:44Steph: We
- 10:45Steph: just
- 10:45Steph: don't
- 10:45Steph: know
- 10:45Steph: the
- 10:46Steph: backstory
- 10:46Steph: here.
- 10:47Steph: But
- 10:47Steph: I
- 10:47Steph: can
- 10:47Steph: understand
- 10:48Steph: him
- 10:48Steph: a
- 10:48Steph: little
- 10:48Steph: bit
- 10:48Steph: more
- 10:48Steph: as
- 10:49Steph: I
- 10:49Steph: read
- 10:49Steph: more
- 10:49Steph: about
- 10:49Steph: the
- 10:49Steph: Assyrians.
- 10:50Steph: Historically,
- 10:51Steph: these
- 10:51Steph: were
- 10:52Steph: one
- 10:52Steph: of
- 10:52Steph: the
- 10:52Steph: most
- 10:52Steph: violent
- 10:53Steph: and
- 10:53Steph: gruesome
- 10:53Steph: cultures
- 10:54Steph: that
- 10:54Steph: ever
- 10:54Steph: lived.
- 10:55Steph: It
- 10:55Steph: makes
- 10:55Steph: a
- 10:55Steph: bit
- 10:55Steph: more
- 10:56Steph: sense
- 10:56Steph: why
- 10:57Steph: Jonah
- 10:57Steph: was
- 10:57Steph: reluctant
- 10:57Steph: to
- 10:58Steph: go
- 10:58Steph: there,
- 10:58Steph: and
- 10:58Steph: he
- 10:58Steph: may
- 10:59Steph: have
- 10:59Steph: been
- 10:59Steph: terrified
- 10:59Steph: of
- 11:00Steph: what
- 11:00Steph: they
- 11:00Steph: would
- 11:00Steph: do
- 11:00Steph: to
- 11:00Steph: him
- 11:00Steph: if
- 11:01Steph: they
- 11:01Steph: didn't
- 11:01Steph: receive
- 11:01Steph: his
- 11:02Steph: message.
- 11:02Steph: They
- 11:02Steph: were
- 11:03Steph: known
- 11:03Steph: for
- 11:03Steph: their
- 11:03Steph: torturous
- 11:04Steph: treatment
- 11:04Steph: of
- 11:04Steph: their
- 11:04Steph: victims.
- 11:05Steph: They
- 11:05Steph: would
- 11:05Steph: engage
- 11:06Steph: in
- 11:06Steph: psychological
- 11:07Steph: warfare,
- 11:07Steph: cutting
- 11:07Steph: off
- 11:08Steph: limbs
- 11:08Steph: and
- 11:08Steph: appendages,
- 11:09Steph: and
- 11:09Steph: skinning
- 11:09Steph: their
- 11:10Steph: victims
- 11:10Steph: alive.
- 11:10Steph: They
- 11:11Steph: wanted
- 11:11Steph: to
- 11:11Steph: be
- 11:11Steph: feared
- 11:12Steph: and
- 11:12Steph: revered,
- 11:12Steph: and
- 11:13Steph: torturing
- 11:13Steph: their
- 11:13Steph: prisoners
- 11:14Steph: was
- 11:14Steph: their
- 11:14Steph: way
- 11:14Steph: of
- 11:14Steph: producing
- 11:15Steph: this
- 11:15Steph: terror.
- 11:15Steph: What
- 11:16Steph: archeologists
- 11:16Steph: have
- 11:16Steph: uncovered
- 11:17Steph: of
- 11:17Steph: their
- 11:17Steph: own
- 11:18Steph: depictions
- 11:19Steph: of
- 11:19Steph: their
- 11:19Steph: treatment
- 11:19Steph: of
- 11:19Steph: enemies
- 11:20Steph: is
- 11:20Steph: horrific.
- 11:21Steph: and
- 11:21Steph: I'll
- 11:21Steph: link
- 11:21Steph: another
- 11:22Steph: article
- 11:22Steph: if
- 11:22Steph: you'd
- 11:23Steph: like
- 11:23Steph: to
- 11:23Steph: dig
- 11:23Steph: into
- 11:23Steph: that
- 11:23Steph: more
- 11:24Steph: But
- 11:24Steph: in
- 11:24Steph: fitting
- 11:24Steph: with
- 11:25Steph: this
- 11:25Steph: timeline
- 11:25Steph: of
- 11:25Steph: Jonah
- 11:26Steph: being
- 11:26Steph: in
- 11:26Steph: 760
- 11:26Steph: BC,
- 11:27Steph: there
- 11:28Steph: is
- 11:28Steph: what
- 11:28Steph: historians
- 11:28Steph: note
- 11:29Steph: as
- 11:29Steph: a
- 11:29Steph: period
- 11:30Steph: of
- 11:30Steph: stagnation
- 11:31Steph: with
- 11:31Steph: the
- 11:31Steph: Assyrians.
- 11:32Steph: Just
- 11:32Steph: like
- 11:32Steph: Chronicles
- 11:33Steph: tells
- 11:33Steph: us
- 11:33Steph: what
- 11:33Steph: the
- 11:33Steph: biblical
- 11:34Steph: kings
- 11:34Steph: did,
- 11:34Steph: the
- 11:35Steph: Assyrians
- 11:35Steph: have
- 11:35Steph: a
- 11:35Steph: record
- 11:36Steph: of
- 11:36Steph: the
- 11:36Steph: kings
- 11:36Steph: going
- 11:37Steph: out
- 11:37Steph: to
- 11:37Steph: war
- 11:37Steph: and
- 11:37Steph: conquering
- 11:38Steph: nations,
- 11:38Steph: and
- 11:38Steph: all
- 11:39Steph: of
- 11:39Steph: a
- 11:39Steph: sudden
- 11:40Steph: this
- 11:40Steph: activity
- 11:40Steph: tapers
- 11:41Steph: off.
- 11:41Steph: It's
- 11:41Steph: possible
- 11:42Steph: that
- 11:42Steph: Jonah's
- 11:42Steph: call
- 11:43Steph: to
- 11:43Steph: repent
- 11:43Steph: set
- 11:44Steph: off
- 11:44Steph: a
- 11:44Steph: chain
- 11:44Steph: of
- 11:44Steph: events
- 11:45Steph: that
- 11:45Steph: weakened
- 11:45Steph: and
- 11:46Steph: tamed
- 11:46Steph: these
- 11:46Steph: gruesome
- 11:47Steph: warriors.
- 11:47Steph: See,
- 11:48Steph: God
- 11:48Steph: knew
- 11:49Steph: that
- 11:49Steph: his
- 11:49Steph: own
- 11:49Steph: people
- 11:50Steph: were
- 11:50Steph: idolatrous
- 11:51Steph: and
- 11:51Steph: wayward,
- 11:51Steph: and
- 11:51Steph: the
- 11:52Steph: best
- 11:52Steph: way
- 11:52Steph: to
- 11:52Steph: return
- 11:53Steph: their
- 11:53Steph: hearts
- 11:53Steph: to
- 11:53Steph: Him
- 11:53Steph: was
- 11:54Steph: through
- 11:54Steph: letting
- 11:54Steph: them
- 11:54Steph: fall
- 11:54Steph: into
- 11:55Steph: captivity
- 11:55Steph: and
- 11:56Steph: he
- 11:56Steph: used
- 11:56Steph: the
- 11:56Steph: Assyrians
- 11:57Steph: to
- 11:57Steph: accomplish
- 11:57Steph: this
- 11:57Steph: purpose.
- 11:58Steph: Because
- 11:59Steph: the
- 11:59Steph: Assyrians
- 11:59Steph: were
- 11:59Steph: so
- 12:00Steph: gruesome
- 12:00Steph: and
- 12:00Steph: treated
- 12:01Steph: their
- 12:01Steph: prisoners
- 12:01Steph: so
- 12:01Steph: horribly,
- 12:02Steph: the
- 12:02Steph: fact
- 12:02Steph: that
- 12:03Steph: God
- 12:03Steph: led
- 12:03Steph: them
- 12:03Steph: to
- 12:03Steph: repent
- 12:04Steph: a
- 12:04Steph: generation
- 12:05Steph: or
- 12:05Steph: so
- 12:05Steph: before
- 12:06Steph: they
- 12:06Steph: took
- 12:06Steph: Israel
- 12:06Steph: captive
- 12:07Steph: may
- 12:07Steph: have
- 12:08Steph: greatly
- 12:08Steph: influenced
- 12:08Steph: the
- 12:09Steph: way
- 12:09Steph: they
- 12:09Steph: treated
- 12:09Steph: them
- 12:10Steph: in
- 12:10Steph: captivity
- 12:11Steph: Jonah's
- 12:11Steph: message
- 12:12Steph: may
- 12:12Steph: not
- 12:12Steph: have
- 12:13Steph: been
- 12:13Steph: just
- 12:13Steph: for
- 12:13Steph: the
- 12:13Steph: Ninevites.
- 12:14Steph: It
- 12:14Steph: may
- 12:14Steph: have
- 12:15Steph: helped
- 12:15Steph: protect
- 12:15Steph: the
- 12:16Steph: nation
- 12:16Steph: of
- 12:16Steph: Israel
- 12:16Steph: later
- 12:17Steph: so
- 12:17Steph: that
- 12:17Steph: their
- 12:17Steph: captivity
- 12:18Steph: wouldn't
- 12:18Steph: be
- 12:18Steph: as
- 12:18Steph: extreme
- 12:19Steph: as
- 12:19Steph: the
- 12:20Steph: Assyrians
- 12:20Steph: historically
- 12:20Steph: were
- 12:21Steph: Back
- 12:21Steph: to
- 12:21Steph: chapter
- 12:22Steph: four,
- 12:22Steph: when
- 12:22Steph: Jonah
- 12:23Steph: quotes
- 12:23Steph: God's
- 12:23Steph: very
- 12:23Steph: words
- 12:24Steph: about
- 12:24Steph: Himself
- 12:24Steph: back
- 12:25Steph: to
- 12:25Steph: Him,
- 12:25Steph: I
- 12:25Steph: knew
- 12:26Steph: that
- 12:26Steph: you
- 12:26Steph: were
- 12:26Steph: a
- 12:26Steph: God,
- 12:27Steph: a
- 12:27Steph: gracious
- 12:28Steph: God
- 12:28Steph: and
- 12:28Steph: merciful,
- 12:29Steph: slow
- 12:29Steph: to
- 12:29Steph: anger,
- 12:30Steph: and
- 12:30Steph: abounding
- 12:30Steph: in
- 12:31Steph: steadfast
- 12:31Steph: love."
- 12:32Steph: God's
- 12:32Steph: pursuit
- 12:33Steph: of
- 12:33Steph: those
- 12:33Steph: who
- 12:33Steph: will
- 12:33Steph: humble
- 12:33Steph: themselves
- 12:34Steph: is
- 12:34Steph: incredible,
- 12:35Steph: and
- 12:35Steph: Nineveh's
- 12:36Steph: repentant
- 12:37Steph: response
- 12:37Steph: is
- 12:37Steph: beautiful.
- 12:38Steph: We
- 12:38Steph: should
- 12:39Steph: never
- 12:39Steph: count
- 12:39Steph: anyone
- 12:40Steph: as
- 12:40Steph: too
- 12:40Steph: far
- 12:40Steph: from
- 12:41Steph: the
- 12:41Steph: saving
- 12:41Steph: grace
- 12:41Steph: of
- 12:41Steph: the
- 12:41Steph: Lord.
- 12:42Steph: But
- 12:42Steph: another
- 12:43Steph: pivotal
- 12:43Steph: message
- 12:44Steph: from
- 12:44Steph: the
- 12:44Steph: Book
- 12:44Steph: of
- 12:44Steph: Jonah
- 12:45Steph: is
- 12:45Steph: what
- 12:45Steph: it
- 12:45Steph: foretold
- 12:45Steph: about
- 12:46Steph: Christ
- 12:46Steph: In
- 12:47Steph: Matthew
- 12:47Steph: v-
- 12:47Steph: beginning
- 12:48Steph: in
- 12:48Steph: verse
- 12:48Steph: 38,
- 12:49Steph: some
- 12:49Steph: of
- 12:49Steph: the
- 12:49Steph: scribes
- 12:50Steph: and
- 12:50Steph: Pharisees
- 12:50Steph: asked
- 12:50Steph: Jesus
- 12:51Steph: for
- 12:51Steph: a
- 12:51Steph: sign
- 12:52Steph: He
- 12:52Steph: answered
- 12:52Steph: them,
- 12:53Steph: An
- 12:53Steph: evil
- 12:53Steph: and
- 12:53Steph: adulterous
- 12:54Steph: generation
- 12:54Steph: seeks
- 12:55Steph: for
- 12:55Steph: a
- 12:55Steph: sign,
- 12:55Steph: but
- 12:56Steph: no
- 12:56Steph: sign
- 12:56Steph: will
- 12:56Steph: be
- 12:56Steph: given
- 12:57Steph: to
- 12:57Steph: it
- 12:57Steph: except
- 12:57Steph: the
- 12:58Steph: sign
- 12:58Steph: of
- 12:58Steph: the
- 12:58Steph: prophet
- 12:59Steph: Jonah.
- 12:59Steph: For
- 12:59Steph: just
- 13:00Steph: as
- 13:00Steph: Jonah
- 13:00Steph: was
- 13:00Steph: three
- 13:01Steph: days
- 13:01Steph: and
- 13:01Steph: three
- 13:01Steph: nights
- 13:02Steph: in
- 13:02Steph: the
- 13:02Steph: belly
- 13:02Steph: of
- 13:02Steph: a
- 13:02Steph: great
- 13:03Steph: fish,
- 13:03Steph: so
- 13:03Steph: the
- 13:03Steph: Son
- 13:04Steph: of
- 13:04Steph: Man
- 13:04Steph: will
- 13:04Steph: be
- 13:04Steph: three
- 13:05Steph: days
- 13:05Steph: and
- 13:05Steph: three
- 13:05Steph: nights
- 13:06Steph: in
- 13:06Steph: the
- 13:06Steph: heart
- 13:06Steph: of
- 13:06Steph: the
- 13:06Steph: earth."
- 13:07Steph: The
- 13:07Steph: men
- 13:07Steph: of
- 13:07Steph: Nineveh
- 13:08Steph: will
- 13:08Steph: rise
- 13:08Steph: up
- 13:08Steph: at
- 13:08Steph: the
- 13:08Steph: judgment
- 13:09Steph: with
- 13:09Steph: this
- 13:09Steph: generation
- 13:10Steph: and
- 13:10Steph: condemn
- 13:10Steph: it,
- 13:11Steph: for
- 13:11Steph: they
- 13:11Steph: repented
- 13:12Steph: at
- 13:12Steph: the
- 13:12Steph: preaching
- 13:12Steph: of
- 13:12Steph: Jonah,
- 13:13Steph: and
- 13:13Steph: behold,
- 13:14Steph: something
- 13:14Steph: greater
- 13:15Steph: than
- 13:15Steph: Jonah
- 13:15Steph: is
- 13:15Steph: here
- 13:16Steph: Jesus
- 13:16Steph: was
- 13:16Steph: saying,
- 13:17Steph: Wake
- 13:17Steph: up,
- 13:18Steph: the
- 13:18Steph: Assyrians
- 13:19Steph: repented.
- 13:19Steph: But
- 13:20Steph: I,
- 13:20Steph: the
- 13:20Steph: Messiah,
- 13:20Steph: am
- 13:21Steph: here,
- 13:21Steph: and
- 13:21Steph: you
- 13:21Steph: can't
- 13:22Steph: even
- 13:22Steph: recognize
- 13:22Steph: it
- 13:23Steph: Paul
- 13:23Steph: Reynolds
- 13:23Steph: explains
- 13:24Steph: that
- 13:24Steph: Jonah
- 13:25Steph: being
- 13:25Steph: thrown
- 13:25Steph: into
- 13:25Steph: the
- 13:25Steph: sea
- 13:26Steph: was
- 13:26Steph: a
- 13:26Steph: symbol
- 13:27Steph: of
- 13:27Steph: Jesus'
- 13:27Steph: death,
- 13:28Steph: and
- 13:28Steph: his
- 13:28Steph: being
- 13:29Steph: swallowed
- 13:29Steph: by
- 13:29Steph: the
- 13:29Steph: big
- 13:29Steph: fish
- 13:30Steph: represented
- 13:31Steph: Jesus'
- 13:31Steph: burial
- 13:32Steph: When
- 13:32Steph: he
- 13:32Steph: was
- 13:32Steph: in
- 13:33Steph: the
- 13:33Steph: fish
- 13:33Steph: until
- 13:33Steph: the
- 13:33Steph: third
- 13:33Steph: day,
- 13:34Steph: that
- 13:34Steph: symbolized
- 13:35Steph: Jesus
- 13:35Steph: being
- 13:36Steph: buried
- 13:36Steph: from
- 13:36Steph: Friday
- 13:37Steph: until
- 13:37Steph: Sunday.
- 13:37Steph: And
- 13:38Steph: finally,
- 13:38Steph: when
- 13:38Steph: Jonah
- 13:39Steph: was
- 13:39Steph: spat
- 13:39Steph: out
- 13:40Steph: onto
- 13:40Steph: land

- 13:56Steph: before
- 13:56Steph: the
- 13:56Steph: creation
- 13:56Steph: of
- 13:57Steph: the
- 13:57Steph: world.
- 13:57Steph: And
- 13:57Steph: Lord,
- 13:58Steph: we
- 13:58Steph: confess
- 13:58Steph: that
- 13:58Steph: at
- 13:59Steph: times
- 13:59Steph: we
- 13:59Steph: can
- 13:59Steph: be
- 13:59Steph: so
- 14:00Steph: focused
- 14:00Steph: on
- 14:01Steph: the
- 14:01Steph: spiritual
- 14:01Steph: condition
- 14:02Steph: of
- 14:02Steph: those
- 14:02Steph: in
- 14:02Steph: our
- 14:02Steph: home
- 14:03Steph: that
- 14:03Steph: we
- 14:03Steph: neglect
- 14:04Steph: to
- 14:04Steph: reach
- 14:04Steph: the
- 14:04Steph: lost
- 14:05Steph: I
- 14:05Steph: pray
- 14:06Steph: that
- 14:06Steph: as
- 14:06Steph: we
- 14:06Steph: dwell
- 14:06Steph: in
- 14:06Steph: your
- 14:06Steph: word,
- 14:07Steph: that
- 14:07Steph: our
- 14:07Steph: hearts
- 14:07Steph: would
- 14:08Steph: break
- 14:08Steph: for
- 14:09Steph: those
- 14:09Steph: that
- 14:09Steph: are
- 14:09Steph: far
- 14:09Steph: from
- 14:10Steph: you,
- 14:10Steph: and
- 14:10Steph: that

- 14:11Steph: anyone
- 14:12Steph: as
- 14:12Steph: too
- 14:13Steph: far
- 14:13Steph: gone
- 14:13Steph: to
- 14:13Steph: receive
- 14:13Steph: your
- 14:14Steph: grace
- 14:14Steph: Give
- 14:15Steph: us
- 14:15Steph: a
- 14:15Steph: boldness
- 14:15Steph: to

- 14:16Steph: preach
- 14:17Steph: a
- 14:17Steph: message
- 14:17Steph: of
- 14:17Steph: repentance.
- 14:18Steph: I
- 14:18Steph: pray
- 14:18Steph: that

- 14:19Steph: would
- 14:19Steph: see
- 14:19Steph: lives
- 14:19Steph: transformed
- 14:20Steph: and
- 14:20Steph: eternities
- 14:21Steph: changed
- 14:22Steph: We
- 14:22Steph: pray
- 14:22Steph: for
- 14:22Steph: our
- 14:22Steph: kids
- 14:23Steph: to
- 14:23Steph: testify
- 14:24Steph: lovingly
- 14:25Steph: about

- 14:26Steph: to
- 14:27Steph: use
- 14:27Steph: witnesses
- 14:27Steph: of
- 14:27Steph: every
- 14:28Steph: age,
- 14:28Steph: and
- 14:29Steph: we
- 14:29Steph: ask
- 14:29Steph: that
- 14:29Steph: they
- 14:29Steph: would
- 14:30Steph: be
- 14:30Steph: salt
- 14:30Steph: and
- 14:30Steph: light
- 14:31Steph: instruments
- 14:31Steph: of
- 14:31Steph: drawing
- 14:32Steph: others
- 14:32Steph: to
- 14:32Steph: you.
- 14:33Steph: We
- 14:33Steph: also
- 14:33Steph: pray
- 14:34Steph: they
- 14:34Steph: would
- 14:34Steph: submit
- 14:34Steph: their
- 14:35Steph: wills
- 14:35Steph: to
- 14:35Steph: you,
- 14:35Steph: and
- 14:36Steph: that
- 14:36Steph: you
- 14:36Steph: would
- 14:36Steph: provide
- 14:36Steph: us
- 14:37Steph: with
- 14:37Steph: the
- 14:37Steph: energy
- 14:37Steph: and
- 14:37Steph: endurance
- 14:38Steph: to
- 14:38Steph: discipline
- 14:39Steph: them
- 14:39Steph: faithfully
- 14:40Steph: and
- 14:40Steph: consistently
- 14:41Steph: when
- 14:41Steph: they
- 14:42Steph: are
- 14:42Steph: set
- 14:42Steph: on
- 14:42Steph: defiance
- 14:43Steph: and
- 14:43Steph: disobedience
- 14:44Steph: and
- 14:44Steph: running
- 14:44Steph: from
- 14:44Steph: your
- 14:45Steph: good.
- 14:45Steph: Thank
- 14:45Steph: you,
- 14:45Steph: Jesus,
- 14:46Steph: that
- 14:46Steph: you
- 14:46Steph: modeled
- 14:47Steph: submission
- 14:47Steph: to
- 14:48Steph: the
- 14:48Steph: Father's
- 14:48Steph: will
- 14:48Steph: so
- 14:48Steph: perfectly,
- 14:49Steph: and
- 14:49Steph: we
- 14:50Steph: pray
- 14:50Steph: we
- 14:50Steph: would
- 14:50Steph: become
- 14:51Steph: more
- 14:51Steph: like
- 14:51Steph: you
- 14:51Steph: in
- 14:52Steph: your
- 14:52Steph: name,
- 14:52Steph: Jesus.
- 14:53Steph: Amen
