When a runaway prophet was exposed on a heaving deck, God drew a true sermon from the very mouth that fled him. But verse 12 reveals a heart that would still rather drown than preach mercy to enemies. Jonah was hurled into the sea unwillingly. Christ entered the storm of God's wrath willingly, so that mercy could reach every Nineveh on earth. Come and see two prophets, two cups, and the Savior who chose the deep for sinners.
