Jonah

The book of Jonah is about a prophet who is reluctant to follow God's command to preach repentance to the wicked city of Nineveh, so he flees by sea. During the voyage, a great storm threatens the ship, and Jonah is thrown overboard, where he is swallowed by a large fish. After three days inside the fish, he repents and prays, and the fish eventually spits him out on dry land. God then sends Jonah to Nineveh again, where his message of doom leads the entire city to repent, much to Jonah's anger. The story ends with God using a plant to teach Jonah that his mercy extends to all of creation.
