I promise this is my last post on this -
I'm an English speaking people --- most of the time,
However, I'll 'pass' on the study sheet, but thanks for the offer. Although it could appear that the offer of said study sheet might be construed as an attempt to baffle with bull those you can't dazzle with Brilliance, as it is "off topic" of our already wildly off topic discussion here -with it's irrelevant references meant to distract from our subject matter - but I am far too much of a gentleman to accuse anyone of such activity.
So, back to our theological discussion - when, in the inspired KJV, book of Jonah, (since you don't believe in the NIV -check your sources it stands for:"New International Version" ) chapter 1 verse 17 states: "Now the Lord had prepared a great fish..."
hmm, KJV, book of Jonah, "great fish",
Boiled down to just the KJV : Jonah vs. Matthew, just maybe we could agree there was a little loss/glitch/dropped pronoun, etc. in the translation.
And then we can both agree, that I am right.
Thank you, God Bless and Good Night

Ok preacher,
Here we go....
Not to turn this into Texas CHL Bible Study, However:
Jonah 1:17: "Now the Lord had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah..." KJV
Jonah 1:17 (NIV): "But the Lord provided a great fish to swallow Jonah..."
Book of Jonah - Authored by .... Jonah 760 B.C.
Matt. 12:40 (NIV) "For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish,..."
If you really want to go further, please PM me as we are slightly off topic--Jonah was there, Matthew was about 820 years (+/-) later-he was in a hurry- I'm going with Jonah on this one
