Author:Pope Shenouda IIIPublisher:Dar Al Alam Al Arabi Press in CairoPublish Year:1980Pages:45Categories:Spiritual Life and Virtues، Biblical CommentaryDescription:The book Contemplations on the Book of Jonah the Prophet by author Pope Shenouda III demonstrates that the book of Jonah the Prophet is full of beautiful spiritual contemplations. The text seamlessly explores the introduction to the first edition, the problem of the fleeing prophet, gentile sailors, Jonah in the belly of the whale, Nineveh the great city, saving Jonah from his cruelty and pride, alongside God in the book of Jonah. The author beautifully concludes
these structural reflections by reminding us that we should take a lesson from this story in the life of submission and obedience.
