Jonah's True Story

"Jonah's True Story"

A Sunday School teacher read a passage from the
Old Testament book of Jonah to her class:

"And the Lord appointed a great fish to swallow
up Jonah; and Jonah was in the belly of the fish
three days and three nights. Then Jonah prayed
to the Lord his G~d from the belly of the fish, saying
'I called to the Lord our of my distress and He
answered me." and the Lord spoke to the fish,
and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land."
(Jonah 1:17)

When she had finished reading, the teacher said,
"Now, children, you have heard the Bible story of
Jonah and the whale. What does this story teach us?"

Little Johnny raised his hand and said, "You can't
keep a good man down!"
