JONAH AND THE FI
JONAH AND THE FISH
Jonah 2
The prophet Jonah is a biblical character who was sent by God to Nineveh to prophesy to the people of that city their destruction if they did not repent. On his journey Jonah nearly drowns in the sea and a great fish (a whale according to the Midrash) swallows him. Only after the fish rescues him and vomits him out on dry land does Jonah agree to go and prophesy to the people of the city of Nineveh.
The artist Daniel Avital illustrates for the viewer the fish after it vomits Jonah out on dry land. He shows too in attractive colors the natural surroundings between the fish in the sea and Jonah on the dry land.
