요나 3:3-4 KRV

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Jonah 3:1-10

Jonah 3:4 . Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown. The LXX read “three days,” and they are followed by most of the Greek fathers. But three days is thought to be an error of the scribe, for the Hebrew, the Chaldaic, Aquila, Symmachus, and Theodotian have forty days. Justin Martyr also, in his dialogue with Trypho the Jew, reads the same. read more

John 3:4Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.The knell of NinevehSardanapalus puts off his jewelled array, and puts on mourning, and the whole city goes down on its knees, and street cries to street, and temple to temple. A black covering is thrown over the horses, and the sheep, and the cattle. Forage and water are kept from the dumb brutes so that their distressed bellowings may make a dolorous accompaniment to the lamentation of six hundred thousands souls. God heard that cry. He... read more

So Jonah arose and went unto Nineveh ] He went not home first to bid them farewell, as Luke 9:61 , neither went he another way, as once; it was enough of that once, and he had learned obedience by the things that he had suffered.

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Jonah 3:1-4

1-4. The preaching of Jonah. Jonah 3:1, is almost identical with Jonah 1:1, the only difference being the addition of “the second time” and the omission of “the son of Amittai”; Jonah 3:2 a, is identical with Jonah 1:2 a; but Jonah 3:2 b is different. Preach The same word as in Jonah 1:2, “cry”; “preaching,” derived from the same root, occurs only here in the Old Testament. The message is to be determined by Jehovah. Jonah has learned a lesson; and, though still rebellious in heart (Jonah... read more
