Things in the Bible not really in the Bible...and a few surprises

Surprise of the Day

Since Assyria had such a bad reputation for torturing to death enemy soldiers, how could Jonah convince even the king to repent? 

Jonah 3

Fact of the Day 

In this case, we need to examine world history and archaeological evidence for our answer.  Maybe Jonah did not know this, but by the time he arrived in the Assyrian capital city of Nineveh, the old king had died and there was a new king named Ashurdan II.  He had just ascended the throne and he was young, inexperienced, and impressionable.  He was 14 years old.  It was a time of new beginnings for Nineveh.

YOU’RE SMART.  READ THE BIBLE FOR YOURSELF.
