I enjoyed Mark Byrons

Edifier du jour today. It deals with Jonahs attitude

toward Ninevah and about loving our enemies. This

really jumped out at me.

Nineveh is in modern-day Iraq, and

Jonah was in Hannity’s shoes, wishing his arch-enemy

ill and feeling pain at their deliverance from God’s

wrath. He didn’t want to go to the capital of

Israel’s enemy and give God the chance to redeem

them. While his encounter with the big fish is the

part of the book most people remember, it’s Jonah’s

attitude about his enemy that God proceeds to Fisk at the end of chapter 4-”Shall I not

be concerned about Ninevah?” God is a loving God,

capable of loving the unlovable. Including Nineveh.

Including the Hussein family.

Now I’m thinking about ‘Fiskings’ in the bible.

Job, who was a righteous man got Fisked.
The money changers in the temple got Fisked and then

thumped.
Any other ‘Fiskings’ you can think of?
