Bolin analyses biblical and extra-biblical traditions and motifs in
the book of Jonah, and argues that the book's portrayal of the
relationship between God and humanity, much like those of Job and
Ecclesiastes, emphasizes an absolute divine sovereignty beyond
human notions of mercy, justice, or forgiveness. God is understood
as free to forgive, yet he still punishes, and is unfettered by the
constraints imposed by attributes of benevolence. The only proper
human response to God is fear at his power and acknowledgment of
him as the source of welfare and woe.
