Jonas was a God called prophet.
Jonas was a God directed prophet.

He was put away three days and three nights.

What light is for. v.33
33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
People work with what light they have.
People waste the light they have.
Why there is no light. v.34
34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
The eyes take in what is before them.
The eyes are where the battle for a soul starts.
