Salvation.
 Meditation upon the Psalms, and the deliverances wrought for the writers, gave Jonah confidence. In his apparently hopeless condition he expressed his confidence in God-given terms. He was sure of deliverance! He was persuaded that he would once more worship in the house of Jehovah! “Salvation is of Jehovah,” was his triumphant finish! (In the Fish's Belly by W.W. Fereday)
 Faith grew bolder; now Jonah could say that he would yet sacrifice to Jehovah with the voice of thanksgiving. How could he possibly have hoped for this while he was still in the belly of the fish? Only by faith. This sacrifice of thanksgiving is the “peace offering,” though it is also called the “thanksgiving offering.” It was a voluntary offering of a sweet savor to Jehovah. We read of it in Lev. 3, and 7:11-21, 28-36, where in 7:12 we find it is called “the sacrifice of thanksgiving.” (Jonah 2: Jonah Prays by G.C. Willis)
 “SALVATION IS OF JEHOVAH.” It is a great thing when we learn this. Then we cease from man whose breath is in his nostrils. (Isa. 2:22.) Shut up to God, without a ray of hope from any other source, there alone in the dark and the stillness, Jonah learned one of the deepest and greatest lessons that any man ever can learn—that is, “Salvation is of Jehovah.” v.9. (Jonah 2: Jonah Prays by G.C. Willis)
