Is it right to be angry?


 Jonah 3:1–4:11 

1. Is this not what I said? 

Jonah, obedient,
proclaims judgement, sentence: 
but then – God's mind changed 


2. Who knows? God may relent? 

Nineveh condemned,
mourning; sackcloth, ash, fast – 
the people believed 


3. ... angry enough to die 

God plants him a tree:
to care for all these people
or a withered plant?
