• I am sure that Jonah, also, humbly submitted to the terrible punishment that God saw fit to inflict upon him, the death penalty, pronounced by his own lips, but chosen by God Himself.

(“Jonah 1: Jonah Rebels” by G.C. Willis)
• Also, as Jonah was thrown overboard, so Israel has been cast into the sea of nations and dispersed among the Gentiles. Banstey (“The Prophecies of Jonah” by B. Anstey)
