THE TYPOLOGY OF JONAH AND JESUS

This post is to certify and authentic that fact that ALL that was written in the Old Testament was intentionally scripted and orchestrated to Point to JESUS and Him alone!
John 5:39 Search THE SCRIPTURES; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which TESTIFY OF ME. 5:40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
Luke 24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things CONCERNING HIMSELF.
Now, let's take a look at the Story of JONAH as it Foreshadows the Redemptive Work of JESUS CHRIST.
JONAH & JESUS
JONAH
His mission was to call the gentile Assyrians of Nineveh to repentance and acknowledgement of GOD as the Source of their Salvation [ Jonah 1:1; 3:1-2].
JESUS
His mission was to call ALL of mankind, including the gentile nations, to repentance and into a Vital and Lively Relationship with GOD [ Matthew 28:18-20].
JONAH was WILLING to sacrifice his life for the salvation of his shipmates [
Jonah 1:12].
JESUS was WILLING to sacrifice His life for the salvation of the world [ Matt 20:28; Mark 10:45; John 1:29; 1 Tim 2:6].
JONAH was entombed in the belly of a great fish
[ Jonah 2:1].
After JESUS' death He was placed in a tomb
[ Matt 27:60; Mark 6:29; Luke 23:53].
