The mention of Jonah being in the whale for 3 days, is figuratively used, to picture Jesus as having been dead for 3 days. Last night, after listening to an online preacher, I learned of another story that figuratively pictured those 3 days, in which Jesus was dead (it used the 3 days journey Abraham took - to picture his son as figuratively, being dead): Genesis 22:4. Interesting! I forgot to say this, but the online pastor said that the place Abraham offered his son was the same place Jesus was crucified! I've heard it before but forgot. Maybe it's true - probably so!
