Scripture focus

And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, [was] not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou [art] a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.

Theological / Devotional

He prayed. How different the circumstances of this prayer, compared with that of ch. 2, and how different the spirit that prompted it! There he prayed for life; here, for death. There he was humble; here, he is angry.
