Reluctant preacher

The author works through the Book of Jonah on a verse-by-verse basis, but this is not really a commentary. Being part of the series on People in the Bible, the author has to tell us about the dramatic life of Jonah, but his real conviction is that the book of Jonah is much more about a compassionate God than it is about a reluctant prophet.
