V.1-4 The second time, the Lord tells Jonah to go and give His message to Nineveh. This time he goes.
V.5-9 The people hear the warning message from Jonah. It surely must have been a strange sermon. Only eight words. Notice that it does not say that the people believed Jonah. This is important to remember when we tell unsaved people about the Lord Jesus Christ. It is God’s message. What kindness of the Lord!
V.8 The people of Nineveh were told to do two things: (1) Pray to God and (2) turn away from their evil doings. Both are needed in our life.
