In this last segment we finally understand why Jonah did not want to go to Nineveh. He was worried that his God might actually be gracious should the citizens repent and amend their lives. Indeed, that is how the Israelite God responded to the Ninevites when they repented and resolved to improve their lives. In the last scene, Jonah gets upset when a vine that was providing relief from the hot sun withers. God had seen to it that the vine appeared and then just as quickly disappeared. God asked Jonah why he should be so concerned about a plant that lasted only a day but begrudged God for being concerned about the people living in Nineveh. On that note, the story ends.

In this episode, Jonah is in the belly of the big fish for three days and nights. The good news is that he did not drown. The bad news is that he compares his new digs to Sheol or The Pit, the world of the dead. Nevertheless, he prays during this ordeal. The prayer is alternately ironic, hypocritical, and sincere. The prayer ends not with an Amen, but with the sound of the big fish's belch. After this, he ends in Nineveh, this time listening to God. Once there, he proclaims that in 40 days Nineveh will be “inverted,” meaning that things might go bad or good for them, depending on their response. The response is good because every last person repented from their evil or violent ways, thus prompting God's relenting of the judgment. Even the Assyrian cows got religion!
