George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Jonah 3:6

King Sardanapalus, (Salien, in the year of the world 3216) or rather his father, Phul, whom Strabo calls Anacyndaraxes, (Calmet.) and who died in the year 3237, (Usher) four years after he had invaded Palestine, 4 Kings xv. 19. read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Jonah 3:5-10

5-10 There was a wonder of Divine grace in the repentance and reformation of Nineveh. It condemns the men of the gospel generation, Matthew 12:41. A very small degree of light may convince men that humbling themselves before God, confessing their sins with prayer, and turning from sin, are means of escaping wrath and obtaining mercy. The people followed the example of the king. It became a national act, and it was necessary it should be so, when it was to prevent a national ruin. Let even the... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Jonah 3:1-10

Jonah's Message to the Ninevites and Its Results. The disobedient prophet had received a severe lesson at the hand of God, but he now profited by this lesson and was ready to undertake the commission which had originally been issued to him. v. 1. And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying, v. 2. Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, the Assyrian capital and metropolis, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee, loudly proclaiming the message which the Lord... read more

Jonah THREEFOLD REPENTANCE Jon_3:1 - Jon_3:10 . This passage falls into three parts: Jonah’s renewed commission and new obedience Jon_3:1 - Jon_3:4, the repentance of Nineveh Jon_3:5 - Jon_3:9, and the acceptance thereof by God Jon_3:10. We might almost call these three the repentance of Jonah, of Nineveh, and of God. The evident intention of the narrative is to parallel the Ninevites turning from their sins, and God’s turning from His anger and purpose of destruction; and if the word... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Jonah 3:1-10

a Repentant City John 3:1-10 Peter was not only forgiven, but restored to his office; so also was Jonah again sent to Nineveh. Thank God for our second chances! There was no hesitancy this time. The prophet arose and went. The story of his deliverance seems to have reached Nineveh and to have prepared its people to receive his word, Luke 11:30 . We must deliver God’s messages and preach only as He bids us. He will tell us what to say. Nineveh is said to have been sixty miles in circuit, the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Jonah 3:1-10

Immediately Jonah was again charged to go to Nineveh. There is a fine revelation of the patient grace of God toward His servant in the statement, "The word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time." With a new sense of the authority of Jehovah, Jonah arose and obeyed. It was a strange and startling thing for Nineveh, this arrival of a man who had been cast into the deep; and it is easy to understand how the monotony of his declaration, that within forty days Nineveh would be destroyed,... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Jonah 3:1-10

On to Nineveh Jonah 3:1-10 INTRODUCTORY WORDS 1. Our opening verse says, "The Word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time." These words bring to us the thought of a second chance. We are reminded of the story of the potter. Only lately, we were in North Carolina in a rustic, old-fashioned pottery house. Before our very eyes, the potter took a large lump of clay, started his wheel, which he ran with a foot pedal. With his hands, he molded a beautiful vase. We stopped him, and said, "You... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jonah 3:1-10

A Changed Jonah Obeys God And Goes To Nineveh Proclaiming Its Overthrow Within Forty Days, With The Result That (To Jonah’s Chagrin) Nineveh Repents (Jonah 3:1-10 ). Jonah was no longer rebellious. He had learned his lesson. So when YHWH came to him again and told him to go to Nineveh to proclaim His word, Jonah did as he was bid. Unlike the seas and the fish he did it by free choice. And the consequence of his preaching was that the people of Nineveh repented deeply, and sought and found... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Jonah 3:5

‘And the people of Nineveh believed God, and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.’ But the impact of the message was huge, for the people responded to ‘God’ with all their hearts. Note the change from ‘YHWH to ‘God’. They were responding to Jonah’s God. They knew nothing of the covenant with YHWH. We do not know what humanly speaking had prepared their hearts for this message. Perhaps it was the recent plagues (which certainly... read more
