JEFF

  I don't understand what you mean by this. Do you mean that I haven't
adequately defended this assertion, that it has no relevance to the issue
at hand (i.e. that there exists a false prophecy in Jonah), that my
assertion did not use proper English syntax, or something else?

  Tim,

    Thank you for your reply. I am sorry that my response has not come
quickly enough for you. I have not checked my email since yesterday
afternoon and have not been able to respond until now. Regarding the
passage at hand, your assertion that God isn't compassionate and slow to
anger based on 2 Sam.6:6-7 assumes that you know the answers to the
following: First, who was supposed to carry the Ark of the Covenant?
Second, how were the Israelites supposed to treat the Ark? Third, how was
the Ark supposed to be transported? Fourth, who was transporting the Ark
in 2 Sam. 6:6-7? And finally, how were they transporting it? Since you
apparently know these answers, please inform us concerning this matter.
Thank you.


                                      Regards,
                                           Jeff
