4:1-7 The account takes an unexpected turn. Jonah, himself a recipient of God’s mercy, complains about the mercy that the Lord has dispensed to the Assyrians. The prophet’s insolence only magnifies God’s grace (see 4:8-11 for God’s response). 4:1 This change of plans (literally It): See study note on 3:10.
