Jonah 3:8 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

And beast — Their horses and camels, both which they adorned with rich and costly clothing, they must now in testimony of an hearty repentance, clothe with sackcloth; the clothing of beasts must witness for men. The violence — Oppression and rapine. In their hands — Which are practised by them.

Jonah 3:8

8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.
