After all, besides being known far and wide for its wickedness, Nineveh was also one of Israel's greatest enemies. So why should Jonah help them Instead, Jonah decided to ignore God and runbut he didn't make it very far.
While Jonah was aboard a ship sailing away from Nineveh, God sent a terrible storm that threatened to sink the ship. The crew, knowing God was angry with Jonah for disobeying him, threw Jonah overboard. But instead of drowning, Jonah was swallowed by a great whale.
