Jonah 1:3
to flee Jonah 4:2; Exod 4:13-14; 1Kgs 19:3, 1Kgs 19:9; Jer 20:7-9; Ezek 3:14; Luke 9:62; Acts 15:38, Acts 26:19; 1Cor 9:16 from Gen 3:8, Gen 4:16; Job 1:12, Job 2:7; Ps 139:7-12; 2Thess 1:9 Joppa Josh 19:46; 2Chr 2:16; Acts 9:36 Tarshish As Jonah embarked at Joppa, a seaport on the Mediterranean, it was probably either Tarsus in Cilicia, or rather Tartessus in Spain, to which he intended to flee. When we reflect how such a message would be received in the streets of London at this day, we shall not wonder at the prophet's reluctance to announce the destruction of the proud and idolatrous Nineveh. Isa 2:16, Isa 23:1, Isa 23:6, Isa 23:10, Isa 60:9; Ezek 27:12
