"“For Thou hadst cast me into the deep, In the midst of the seas; And the floods compassed me about: And Thy billows and Thy waves passed over me. PK 269.1"
"For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me."
EGW directly quotes Jonah 2:3.
"“Then I said, I am cast out of Thy sight; Yet I will look again toward Thy holy temple. The waters compassed me about, Even to the soul: PK 269.2"
"Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple."
EGW directly quotes Jonah 2:4.
"“The depth closed me round about, The weeds were wrapped about my head. I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The earth with her bars was about me forever: PK 269.3"
"I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me."
EGW directly quotes Psalm 69:2, making it an explicit allusion rather than a thematic parallel. The confidence is increased due to the direct quotation.
"“Yet hast Thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God. When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: And my prayer came in unto Thee, Into Thine holy temple. PK 269.4"
"In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears."
Both passages describe a person in distress praying to God and being heard in His temple. While not a direct quote, the thematic similarity is strong.
"Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah."
EGW directly quotes Psalms 3:8, making it an explicit allusion. The confidence is very high due to the direct quotation and clear attribution.
"At last Jonah had learned that “salvation belongeth unto the Lord.” Psalm 3:8 . With penitence and a recognition of the saving grace of God, came deliverance. Jonah was released from the perils of the mighty deep and was cast upon the dry land. PK 269.6"
"Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah."
Ellen White directly references Psalms 3:8 in this passage.
"Once more the servant of God was commissioned to warn Nineveh. “The word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying, Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.” This time he did not stop to question or doubt, but obeyed unhesitatingly. He “arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord.” Jonah 3:1-3 . PK 269.7"
"And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying, Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee. So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days’ journey."
Ellen White directly references Jonah 3:1-3 in this passage.
