Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Jonah 3:1

And the word of the Lord came a second time to Jonah - o “Jonah, delivered from the whale, doubtless went up to Jerusalem to pay his vows and thank God there. Perhaps he hoped that God would be content with this his punishment and repentance, and that He would not again send him to Nineveh.” Anyway, he was in some settled home, perhaps again at Gath-hepher. For God bids him, “Arise, go” . “But one who is on his way, is not bidden to arise and go.” God may have allowed an interval to elapse, in... read more

Jonah 3:1-3. And the word of the Lord, &c. After Jonah had been well chastised for his disobedience, and was set at liberty, as recorded in the preceding chapter, the divine call to him to prophesy was repeated. He had rebelled against God’s command the first time, but now, being humbled and better prepared, he is tried again. So Hebrew, And, Jonah arose and went into Nineveh He now obeys without reluctance. Such was the blessed fruit of the correction which he had received. Now... read more

3:1-4:11 THE NINEVITES’ REPENTANCEJonah’s preaching in Nineveh (3:1-10)God repeated his command to Jonah to go and preach in Nineveh, and this time Jonah obeyed (3:1-3). God’s message was that within forty days Nineveh would, because of its wickedness, be overthrown. The Ninevites, leaders and common people alike, heeded the warning and turned in repentance to God (4-5). The king even issued a decree commanding a moral reformation in the city (6-9). As a result of the Ninevites’ repentance, God... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Jonah 3:1

This brief chapter of ten verses tells of the renewal of Jonah's commission, his obedient response, his preaching the word God had commanded, and the remarkable repentance of the Ninevites.Jonah 3:1"And the word of Jehovah came unto Jonah the second time, saying."The narrative passes over a number of intervening incidents which arouse our curiosity. Nothing is given concerning where Jonah was deposited by the fish, what Jonah did next, or where he was when this second commission came from the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Jonah 3:1

The writer did not clarify exactly when this second commission came to Jonah. It may have been immediately after Jonah reached dry land or it may have been sometime later. The writer’s point seems to be that God gave the prophet a second commission, not when it came to him (cf. Jonah 1:1-2). God does not always give His servants a second chance to obey Him when they refuse to do so initially. Often He simply uses others to accomplish His purposes. In Jonah’s case God sovereignly chose to use... read more

Repentance (For Ash Wednesday) Jonah 3:5 ; Jonah 3:10 Among all the passages in the picturesque narratives of the Old and New Testaments, there is none that, as a picture, is more wonderfully illustrative of the repentant life than is this. It brings before us three well-defined points. I. First, as to the cause which leads a man to repentance. The people of Nineveh are here said to have believed God. I want to submit to you that this curious statement about this people strikes one more... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Jonah 3:1-10

THE REPENTANCE OF THE CITYJonah 3:1-10HAVING learned, through suffering, his moral kinship with the ‘heathen, and having offered his life for some of them, Jonah receives a second command to go to Nineveh. He obeys, but with his prejudice as strong as though it had never been humbled, nor met by Gentile nobleness. The first part of his story appears to have no consequences in the second. But this is consistent with the writer’s purpose to treat Jonah as if he were Israel. For, upon their return... read more
