Jonah
Inside a whale
large fish. (The Bible doesn't mention a 'whale' anywhere in the book of Jonah.)
Jonah. God told him to go to Ninevah and preach but Jonah ran from God, he boarded a ship bound for a far away place so God sent a storm and Jonah was thrown overboard. It wasn't Jonah's time to die so god sent a whale to swallow Jonah, Jonah spent three days inside the whale praying to God for forgiveness so God had the whale spit Jonah onto shore and Jonah went to preach the gospel in Ninevah as God had commanded.
None. It was Jonah not Noah that was in the whale. He was there for three days and three nights.
Jonah was in the stomach of a 'great fish' - assumed by many to be a whale - for three days and three nights.
They both spent three days and three nights in the "deep". Jonah three days in depths of the sea, in the belly of the fish (the Bible does not say whale) and Jesus three days in the depths of the earth.
Yes, the prophet Jonah was swallowed by a whale and was stuck there for three days and three nights.
Jonah was in the whale three days and three nights.Jonah 1:17"Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights."
Jonah is famous as he refus ed to go where god told him to go to. So he was swallowed by a whale and spent three days in the whales belly. Most likely the only man to be swallowed and to cime out alive.
In the New American Bible Jesus is stated as saying: "Just as Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of Man spend three days and three nights in the bowels of the earth." (Matthew 12:40) However, most translations render the words "a great fish" and does not specify what kind of sea creature God used, but Jesus himself confirmed that the account of Jonah is true. (Matthew 12:39, 40)
As Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so Jesus was three days and three nights in the heart of the Earth
Matthew 12:40: "For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." This word could be referring to a Whale Shark. The word is only used this once by Christ in the New Testament, and a few times in the Old Testament.
