Jonah 1:3

1:3

escape <01272> [to flee.]

from .................................... from <06440> [from.]

Joppa <03305> [Joppa.]

Tarshish ..................... Tarshish ................ Tarshish <08659> [Tarshish.]

As Jonah embarked at Joppa, a seaport on the Mediterranean, it was probably either Tarsus in Cilicia, or rather Tartessus in Spain, to which he intended to flee. When we reflect how such a message would be received in the streets of London at this day, we shall not wonder at the prophet's reluctance to announce the destruction of the proud and idolatrous Nineveh.
