Believeing that the Ninevites should be punished, Jonah sets out on his journey. However, disobeying God's command, he goes by ship the opposite way to Tarshish. He is thrown from the ship during the storm and is swallowed by a great fish. He lives in the belly of the fish for three days and nights, until he prays to be saved. God repeats His command to Jonah, so he goes to Nenevah. The people repent and Jonah learns that those who repent are forgiven.NOTES: Donated by Lisa and Jacob Landry.

He fell in love at the sight of a beautiful Jewish orphan named Esther, and she was chosen to be his bride. The King's favorite counselor, Haman, was an evil man to whom the kingom had to bow down by order of the King. Esther's cousin Mordecai refused to bow down to Haman. This angered Haman. He told the King that Jews would not obey the laws of the land, therefore they should all be put to death. Mordecai told Queen Esther of this order to kill all Jews and asked her to intervene with the King to save her people. Queen Esther invited the King and Haman to a banquet and bravely asked the King to spare her life and the lives of her people, the Jews. The King had not known that Esther was Jewish and he demanded to know who had threatened her life. She pointed to Haman, and the King was so angry that he ordered Haman to be killed instead of the Jews. Queen Esther's bravery spared the lives of her people.NOTES: Donated by Lisa and Jacob Landry.
