I once heard a pastor preach a sermon about the similarities of Messiah and Jonah. Messiah Himself says that the “sign” people where asking for was the parallels between Himself and Jonah. Most people remember the reference to Jonah being in the belly of a sea creature for three days (Matthew 12:38-41) and think that’s all there is, but there’s so much more—and it starts before he is even swallowed!
| 🕢 Event | 👑 Messiah | 🦈 Jonah |
|---|---|---|
| Falls asleep on a boat and is awakened due to a storm | Jonah 1:4-6 | |
| Cut off from the world of the living for 3 days and 3 nights | Jonah 2 | |
| Warns the people to repent | ||
| 40 days before the judgment |
