| Nov 23, 2011 at 4:23 | comment | added | Menachem | Yonah figured that if the people of Ninveh would listen to G-d's word and repent, it would make the Jewish people look that much worse for not repenting. He therefore tried to get out of delivering the message to them. (I don't know if it is the Abarbanel who makes this point). | |
