At the end of the Book of Jonah, Jonah sits under a sukkah, which is a shelter during final annual festival of Sukkot that represents the end of time when God’s people are “one with Him”. But why did God comfort Jonah with shade from the sukkah and then remove the shade so he was in agony from a burning sun? What does this symbolize? A study of the four chapters of Jonah that ends with a complex chiastic construction offers the answer.
