The latest volume of the Maggid Studies in Tanakh series, Jonah: The Reluctant Prophet, Dr. Erica Brown takes us on a journey over land and sea, in the footsteps of the Bible's most recalcitrant prophet.  Melding traditional commentators, rabbinic literature, modern biblical scholarship, psychological sensitivity, and artistic imagination, Brown travels through the four chapters of Jonah's story - tracing hid call to leadership, his subsequent intransigence, his momentary rise to duty and hs tragic resignation - in an effort to discover God's ultimate lesson for him.
