Joanna Kimbrel lists and explains four ways the book of Jonah points ahead to Jesus.
- Obedience to the call
- Cast down to death
- Three days in the deep
- Messengers of mercy
The story of Jonah is more than a Sunday school tale about a big fish—it’s a shadow of the Savior to come. Jesus is the true and better Jonah. In every act of disobedience and deliverance, resistance and redemption, Jonah points us to Jesus: the obedient Son, the sovereign Lord, the risen Savior, and the merciful Redeemer.
