Today, we come to the place in the story of Jonah where he is thrown overboard into the sea to be saved by a great fish provided by the Lord. The Lord commands all creatures, and can make any of them serve his designs of mercy to his people. Let us see this salvation of the Lord, and admire his power, that he could thus save a drowning man, and his pity, that he would thus save one who was running from him. and had offended him.
