The whale is a what?
Three different Greek words that mean whale in this verse.
Could be a whale (used three times in the Bible, but it may not look like a whale that we think of today)
Could be a serpent (used three times in the Bible, Job asks if he is a whale, Aaron and the magicians’ rods became a serpent like this)
Could be a sea monster (used 1 time in the Bible)
Could be a dragon (used 21 times in the Bible, Job 30:29)
This word whale is never called a fish in the Bible.
