Jonah 4:4
¶Then said the LORD, 1Doest thou well to be angry?
¶Then said the LORD, Doest thou well to be angry?
1:
Matthew 20:15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?
James 1:19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
James 5:9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the judge standeth before the door.
Jonah 4:9 And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.
Then, so soon as Jonah’s haste had sinned against his God and his own life, said the Lord; either by voice audible to Jonah, or rather by his Spirit; that Spirit which gave Jonah order to go and preach, now takes order to debate the case.
who is now, as Jonah needed he should be, gracious, slow to anger, and of great kindness toward Jonah, else he had not lived a moment longer to repent him of his last sins in this matter.
is thy vehement anger warrantable? or will this anger of thine do good to thyself or others? Think well of it, whether thou dost act like a prophet, like one that feareth God, or like a man, in this thine anger?
