We learn from Jonah that  understanding God’s grace— and being changed by it— always requires a long journey  with successive stages.  It cannot happen in a single  cathartic or catastrophic experience  (like being swallowed by a fish!).
  
我們從約拿的故事學到, 能認識神的恩典、並被其改變, 總是需要一段很長的過程、 並要經過很多不同的階段, 而不是在經歷一次巨變 (像是被一隻大魚所吞下)就能達成的。
  
— by Timothy Keller  from his book 『The Prodigal Prophet: Jonah and the Mystery of God's Mercy』
