God called Jonah to Nineveh a second time, and this time Jonah obeyed. It must have taken him a month or more to reach Nineveh. When he announced (Jonah 3:4) “Yet forty days and Nineveh will be overthrown” people began to repent. Word got to the king himself, and he repented and called upon everyone to follow suit. The king said: (Jonah 3:9) "Who knows, God may turn and relent and withdraw His burning anger so that we will not perish.” Here’s the rest of the story. The people of Nineveh repented, God withheld judgment, Jonah didn’t like it, and he threw a tantrum.
