Daily Bible Reading - August 16th, 2020 | American Bible Society: Jonah 1:1-17: Today we will begin reading from the book of Jonah, a narrative that describes the adventures of a prophet who tried to disobey God’s command. In today’s reading, God commands Jonah to go to Nineveh, the capital of Assyria, Israel’s deadly enemy, to tell its people they are doomed. Jonah, however, disobeys God and boards a ship bound for Spain. A storm ensues, and Jonah is thrown overboard and swallowed by a large fish.
