YonahChapter 2
Three Days in Darkness, Then Raised
Jonah three days in the fish is Yeshua's own declared type — the Ben Adam in the earth's heart three days, then rising as Jonah rose, victorious from the deep.
- Jonah's Prayer From the Deep
From inside the fish, Jonah prays. No place is too deep, too dark, or too desperate for Elohim to hear you.
- 1Then Jonah prayed to YHWH, his Elohim, out of the fish’s belly.
- 2He said, “I called because of my affliction to YHWH. He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried. You heard my voice.
- 3For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your waves and your billows passed over me.
- 4I said, ‘I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again towards your kodesh temple.’
- 5The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The deep was around me. The weeds were wrapped around my head.
- 6I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever; yet you have brought my life up from the pit, YHWH my Elohim.
- 7When my soul fainted within me, I remembered YHWH. My prayer came in to you, into your kodesh temple.
- 8Those who regard vain idols forsake their own chesed.
- Salvation Belongs to Adonai
Salvation belongs to Adonai. Jonah finally surrenders — and the fish delivers him to dry land.
- 9But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to YHWH.”
- 10Then YHWH spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
