Lying frightened Jonas because it went against the values of honesty and integrity that he had been raised with in the community. He had been taught that lying was a serious transgression that could lead to the unraveling of the society's structure and could result in chaos and confusion. Additionally, Jonas had very little experience with deception and dishonesty, so the idea of lying was foreign and unsettling to him.
