It was mentioned as a prophetic book with a focus on the Ninevites, illustrating a situation outside of the divided kingdoms of Israel and Judah.

"

So you got to pay attention. Yeah, and that's so critical. Also, the names. There are a number of times where the Kingdom of Israel has a king that has the same name as a King of Judah. And it's like, okay, wait, oh, this is Jehoram, King of Judah, Jehoram, King of Israel. Joash is, okay, he's in Judah.

And as you said, Jonah goes off to the Ninevites, but the others are really trying to speak into the lives of the people and the lives of these kingdoms and saying, just come back.

Jonah even says after they repent, Jonah says, this is why I didn't want to come here because I know who you are.

And should I not pity Nineveh, that great city in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons who do not know their right hand from their left, and also much cattle?
