EXPLANATION

Verse 9. And. Greek “And his people shall confess to God, and the Lord shall exalt his people, and all shall rejoice who love the Lord God in truth and justice, shewing mercy to our brethren. And now, son, depart from Ninive; for what the prophet, Jonas, spoke, shall surely be accomplished.” Bible.—This prediction was conditional, as was also the pardon of the people, who were justly punished for their relapse. Menochius.
