Jonah Table of Contents

Jonah 1 Minute

The book of Jonah and the book of Nahum are linked by the city of Nineveh. Jonah was written first, about 100 to 150 years before Nahum. Nahum is a prophesy of the Lord against Nineveh, whereas in Jonah, Nineveh repented towards the Lord. Nineveh was the capital of Assyria, and returned to their ways against the Lord after they repented 100 to 150 years before.
