KINGS-Jeroboam II attained suze-

of the book Of Jonah has presented accu-
rately the values Of the historical situa-

Jonah was unquestionably a his
torical parsonage. He lived in the
reign of Jeroboam H., king Of Israel,
in whose time Amoss work was ac-
complished. According to 2 Kings Ia:
rs, he prophesied the recovery from
Syria of the lost border possessions of
Israel. He is said to have belonged
to Gath-hepher, town of Zebulon,
and his grave is still shown in the
vicinity of Nazareth. Gath-hepher
was about an hours walk north Of
Nazareth. Jonah was therefore a
prophet of Galilee. Jewish legend
said that he was the son of the widow
of Sarepta, whom Elijah had restored
to life; and also that he was the youth
whom Elisha had sent to anoint Jehu,
king of Israel.
This little biography begins with
the announcement that God asked a
man to do something for him. 1t is
significant that other Bible writer's
nehemiah, jeremiah. Zephaniah,
Haggai, Micah) begin the story of
their lives at the same point. Our ac-
quaintance with Paul begins with his
summons to duty, and the apostles
were not known until Christ bade
them follow him. Jonah's call was to
go to Nineveh, the greatest and wick
eldest city in the world, and threaten
it with doom from Jehovah.
How did Jonah answer his mission
ary call? BY running away. He fed
from the presence Of the Lord, as if
God were, in his mind, only-a local
divinity, ruling over Israel but unable
to see the fugitive if he fled far enough
beyond his territory. Jonah should
have asked himself, eff the God of
Israel sees what is going on at distant
Nineveh, and is concerned about it, is
it to be supposed that his unfaithful
servant will escape his notice, like
some defaulting apprentice lad, who
hopes to elude his masters notice by
running away to. sea-"
