Best Answer

Jonas was a prophet that had received a message from God to go and preach in the city of Ninive, as the people there had become wicked. Instead of doing as God wished, Jonas disobeyed his message and fled to a boat with individuals he did not know. The water and winds began to pick up, and the men feared that the boat was in danger of being broken, and feared for their lives. They decided to throw Jonas from the boat, which immediately caused the seas to calm. Jonas was then swallowed by a whale for 3 days and 3 nights. He then received the same message from God, was cast out of the whale and went to preach in the city of Ninive.
