CHAPTER 1

1 The word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai: 2 “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.”

3 But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the LORD.

4 Then the LORD sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. 5 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship.

But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. 6 The captain went to him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us so that we will not perish.”

7 Then the sailors said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity.” They cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah. 8 So they asked him, “Tell us, who is responsible for making all this trouble for us? What kind of work do you do? Where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?”

9 He answered, “I am a Hebrew and I worship the LORD, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.”

10 This terrified them and they asked, “What have you done?” (They knew he was running away from the LORD, because he had already told them so.)

11 The sea was getting rougher and rougher. So they asked him, “What should we do to you to make the sea calm down for us?”

12 “Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” he replied, “and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.”

13 Instead, the men did their best to row back to land. But they could not, for the sea grew even wilder than before. 14 Then they cried out to the LORD, “Please, LORD, do not let us die for taking this man’s life. Do not hold us accountable for killing an innocent man, for you, LORD, have done as you pleased.” 15 Then they took Jonah and threw him overboard, and the raging sea grew calm. 16 At this the men greatly feared the LORD, and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows to him.

17 Now the LORD provided a huge fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

NOTES ON MY SELECTION CRITERIA

A r t Q u a l i t y

The Bible and its Author are my focus, not the art: this is The Bible in Paintings, not "Great Paintings" nor even "Good Paintings." Indeed, occasionally photographs illustrate the text. So, works need not be masterpieces to qualify for inclusion here—they don't need to be housed at the Louvre nor auctioned by Sotheby's. They only need to illustrate successfully some aspect of the Biblical text or, frankly, just tickle my fancy, which I'm always asking the Holy Spirit to guide.

Often, artists misrepresent the Scripture, but unless the error is material, licentious or heretical I usually include the artwork, trusting that the Spirit is perfectly capable of defending Himself. So, with such forgiving filters, it means that you're seeing practically everything I'm finding.

T e x t S e q u e n c i n g

The Protestant Canon does not (for several reasons) follow a strictly chronological sequence. There are many examples where, for God's good purposes, stories are told out-of-order. Nevertheless, for the sake of simplicity, clarity, and my sanity, I have chosen to proceed linearly and methodically from Genesis onward, illustrating each Bible passage as we come to it. Where two passages cover the same incident I omit the second telling, excepting the four Gospels which I will treat synoptically. Now, onward!

P a c i n g

The pace here may seem appallingly snail-like to those eager to see their favorite events illustrated. My commission is to search for art on each Bible passage in sequence: if I find enough, then it becomes the next installment, even if undramatic (but where there is little or no art, that Bible passage goes untold here).

Then, there is the human element: this is not actually a daily series, because I can only research, compose, edit and post five or six of these installments weekly. And because I only get to do this series once, I'm taking my time, chiefly by posting everything; if I find lots of art, I don't cherry-pick some and discard the rest. Rather, I line up all of them and then sort them into manageable bunches, often resulting in multiple days' episodes of the same story. Obviously, I like being thorough. Were you in a big hurry?

The Bible is a thick book, as you know; but we'll get there eventually, Lord willing—this is His project, after all. And always remember:
love, joy, peace, patience kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness & self-control is a fruit of the Spirit!

. .

Art is merely the Toy Department of Bible study,
so I'm just having fun here—I hope you are, too!
Thank you for your understanding.

CONSIDERATION

ENJOYMENT

& BLESSING

[left that other site]

In honor of Jonah, Melville, and Dr. Seuss, who has been recently banned by the Woke:

(((If Moby Dick had been written by Dr. Seuss:)))

I hate that whale.
He ate my leg
And now it’s just an ivory peg.
I hate that whale,
He makes me sick
So now I must kill Moby Dick.

Must I kill him?
Yes I must.
But first I must
get the crew’s trust.
I’ll plead with them
I’ll plead and beg
to kill the whale that ate my leg.

Kill him!
Kill him!
Kill kill kill
He’ll wish that all he ate was krill!

With my last breath
I’ll stab at thee
While thy gore washeth over me!
Stab stab stab and
Bleed Bleed Bleed
Treat the crew to another screed.

Stormy seas,
My voice gets higher
Grabbing on St. Elmo’s fire.
Queequeg, Dagoo, and Tashtego
Lower the boats and off we go.
The wind is screaming,
I scream louder.

But first I gotta
Get me some Chowdah.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Inspired! Your original work?

[left that other site]

Yes...from about an hour ago.

[Hebrews 11:6]

That really is your favorite. By coincidence (no such thing), yesterday I read Conan Doyle’s “The Sign of Four,” featuring a man with a wooden leg.

[left that other site]

There are no coincidences.

This thread was rehearsed by me and thee
Long before these oceans rolled.

I enter my poems in a Moby Dick Contest, but the grand prize is a gift certificate to STARBUCKS!

[Hebrews 11:6]

So, there are others?

[Grammy]

I have a picture named Jonah by James Christensen watching over my left shoulder as I type this and one by Edie Harper floating around in a closet.

[left that other site]

It happens,
When I get the Muse,
The English Language,
I cheerfully ABUSE!

LOL.

[Hebrews 11:6]

This, I assume, is the Christensen on your wall--I see why you hung it! I whiffed on both, and this is what I presume to be the Harper:

[Hebrews 11:6]

O how we want
To run straight Home,
When confronted by
An abusive Poem!

[Grammy]

Yup, that’s the Christensen. I love it, especially since it belonged to my mother. The ornateness of the fish distracts you, so it takes a while to find Jonah.

That is not the same Harper I have. The one I have I love because you really have to look at it in order to get it. I will send it to you in a link. (Sorry, I don’t know how to get those things in a post.)

[left that other site]

LOL.

[Hebrews 11:6]

I can teach you, if you’re interested, how to post images here, as I’ve taught others. It is literally as easy a posting links, which you already know how to do. Takes a couple of minutes: just say the word!

[Hebrews 11:6]

[TheConservativeParty]

Very interesting collection! I like the sculpture Jonah The Prophet the best.

[Hebrews 11:6]

I always wish I could find more statues and bas reliefs. Jonah’s is a simple story that seems to be fitting for sculpture: just a man and a sea-critter.

[Albion Wilde]

Many delightful ones here in the illustration and tempera department!

[Hebrews 11:6]

This series in Jonah was lots of fun to prepare.
