1 (H2-2) E Giona pregò l’Eterno, il suo Dio, nel ventre del pesce, e disse:

2 (H2-3) Io ho gridato all’Eterno dal fondo della mia distretta, ed egli m’ha risposto; dalle viscere del soggiorno dei morti ho gridato, e tu hai udito la mia voce.

3 (H2-4) Tu m’hai gettato nell’abisso, nel cuore del mare; la corrente mi ha circondato e tutte le tue onde e tutti i tuoi flutti mi son passati sopra.

4 (H2-5) E io dicevo: Io son cacciato via lungi dal tuo sguardo! Come vedrei io ancora il tuo tempio santo?

5 (H2-6) Le acque m’hanno attorniato fino all’anima; l’abisso m’ha avvolto; le alghe mi si son attorcigliate al capo.

6 (H2-7) Io son disceso fino alle radici dei monti; la terra con le sue sbarre mi ha rinchiuso per sempre; ma tu hai fatto risalir la mia vita dalla fossa, o Eterno, Dio mio!

7 (H2-8) Quando l’anima mia veniva meno in me, io mi son ricordato dell’Eterno, e la mia preghiera è giunta fino a te, nel tuo tempio santo.

8 (H2-9) Quelli che onorano le vanità bugiarde abbandonano la fonte della loro grazia;

9 (H2-10) ma io t’offrirò sacrifizi, con canti di lode; adempirò i voti che ho fatto. La salvezza appartiene all’Eterno.

10 (H2-11) E l’Eterno diè l’ordine al pesce, e il pesce vomitò Giona sull’asciutto.

Exploring the Meaning of Jonah 2      

Napsal(a) New Christian Bible Study Staff

In Jonah 2:1-10, Jonah is trapped in the belly of the great fish. He prays for salvation, and in the end, after this terrible trial, he is vomited forth onto dry land.

Before a new church -- either a state of good and truth with a group of people, or a new state of good an truth in ourselves - can come into existence, a period of temptation, of struggle, must occur. During this time a remnant of good and truth from prior states, will be preserved. This happens to us. When we really don't want to do something that we know we should do, we get into a state of spiritual temptation. That's what this chapter is about.

In Arcana Coelestia 756, it says: "In Jonah, 'The waters closed around me, even to my soul, the deep surrounded me. Here... 'the waters' and 'the deep' stand for the full extent of temptation.

This chapter also prophesies, or foreshadows, the combats that Jesus Christ would have with the hells, and his most grievous temptations at the time. The “three days and nights during which Jonah was in the bowels of the fish,” signify the entire duration of the combat with the hells.

In the New Testament, in Matthew 12:39-41, there's a reference back to this story:

"No sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah. And now One greater than Jonah is here.

For us, then... what? When we've turned away from the Lord, and we're in "the belly of the fish" - in temptations, struggles, combats, and everything looks pretty hopeless - then if we really pray, and seek the Lord's help, he can help us.

Here's a link to an interesting (audio) sermon on this chapter, by Rev. Todd Beiswenger.
