this scripture also teaches us not to let some in your home,your life, or even your church without learning something about them. when jonah got to joppa he paid his fare and got on the boat with no questions ask, their concernes at that time was the fare. when the trouble began they wanted to know then, who was his people, where was he from, and where he worked. just maybe if they had asked some questions from the start, they would have saved them selves some problems.
