Designed for pastors, teachers, and Bible students, Jonah, A Video
Study, together with the accompanying Jonah commentary in the Zondervan
Exegetical Commentary on the Old Testament, brings to light the
universal scope of God's sovereignty and mercy. With careful analysis
and interpretation of the Hebrew text, professor and scholar Kevin
Youngblood traces the flow of argument in the book of Jonah, showing
that how a biblical author says something is just as important as what
he says.
Each lesson surveys the main idea of a passage, its literary context,
its structure and literary form, and its meaning, alongside its
canonical and practical significance for us today. Jonah, A Video
Study attempts to understand the enduring impact this story has had on
culture by building on insights found in the wealth of scholarly
understanding on Jonah and Hebrew literature. Viewers will see how this
brief narrative has captured the imagination of generations and still
has much to say in today's world.
