Jonah (lived 7th century BC)) This 4th-century mosaic from the Basilica Aquileia, Italy, shows the Hebrew prophet Jonah sitting under a gourd plant outside the city of Nineveh, waiting for the judgement of God. Hebrew prophet whose name is given to a book in the Old Testament. According to this, he fled by ship to evade his mission to prophesy the destruction of Nineveh, the ancient capital of Assyria. The crew threw him overboard in a storm, as a bringer of ill fortune, and he spent three days and nights in the belly of a whale before coming to land. How to thank TFD for its existence?
