CONTINUATION OF THE BOOK OF JONAH
DATE:
If Jonah was the son of Amittai cited in 2 Kings 14:25, the prophecy would have to be dated in the reign of Jeroboam II of Israel (793-753 BC). Jonah would then be one of the great 8th-century prophets who ministered during the silver Age of Israel.
Why did Jonah Disobeyed God?
If you want to know what is happening here you need to read your scripture again and again. Jonah is here to fight/avenge for his people Israel why? Because Assyria have offended Israel in which God had promised to destroy Assyria for their actions towards His people; this is what this bitter heart prophet have in mind he didn't expect God to instruct him to preach to them for repentance. Jonah did not know the mind of God.
As a child/children of God you need to know the mind of God.
To be continue.......
