Synopsis by Sally Barber

The timeless story of Jonah and the whale is brought to life with sophisticated animation techniques and rich, contemporary imagery. From the nine-tape series Testament: The Bible in Animation, comes this Old Testament tale of the bad-tempered prophet Jonah who tries to run away from his God-given mission of preaching to the wicked people of Nineveh. The rebellious Jonah is swallowed by a great fish, later completes his task and learns a valuable lesson about mercy. Videos in this series include "Creation and the Flood," "Ruth," "Joseph," "David and Saul" and more.
