Context Readings

Jonah Is Angry At Yahweh's Compassion

4 Jehovah asked him: Do you have good reason to be angry? 5 Then Jonah went out from the city and sat east of it. There he made a shelter for himself and sat under it in the shade until he could see what would happen in the city. 6 And Jehovah God prepared a gourd plant. He made it grow up over Jonah. That way it would be a shade over his head. It would deliver him from his disastrous (fateful) attitude. So Jonah was very glad to have the gourd plant.
