We have seen a great deal of emphasis on the concept of truth in these texts, both from the authors and the characters they invent. Write about how the Prophet Jonah, in the Book of Jonah searches for truth, answering the question: How does Jonah find truth and what does this tell us about the author’s concept of truth? Consider these questions: -Why and in what way is truth important to Jonah? – What strategies does Jonah use in his search? Or does he not search, but receive the truth anyway? – How does Jonah know when he has received the truth? How does he know something is true? Does he need proof? What kind of proof? Does it matter who reveals the truth? Are there any characters that do not require proof for their beliefs?
