The above verse was uttered in prayer by Jonah the Prophet while he was trapped inside the belly of a large fish. Despite his grim situation, Jonah did not despair, but rather turned to God in prayer and in the hopes of surviving his ordeal and once again being worthy of standing before God in His Holy Temple in Yerushalayim. Jonah conveys the message that although man may stumble in sin, he can always pick himself up and recover. Even after our biggest failures, God lovingly awaits our return. The Book of Jonah is read aloud on Yom Kippur in synagogues around the world. The lessons on faith and determination that we learn from this prophet can be applied to our own struggles in daily life.
