Jonah and the Whale:

Everybody knows the story. Jonah is a prophet who disobeys God, gets swallowed by a gigantic fish, lives inside the belly of this fish for three days and eventually gets spit out onto the shore and reluctantly goes to the city of Nineveh to preach. But what if this is not what this story is actually about. Remember, the Bible is not a book of secular history (despite popular belief) but rather a book of consciousness which is addressed to the human imagination. So, with this in mind, we need to ask ourselves what the real message is here. The Bible is one big allegory from start to finish, so this story of Jonah and the Whale is not what it appears to be on the surface level, there is a secret of reality creation hiding in plain sight within the words.
