Ronson could tell that Lehrer was suffering terribly especially since it was found out that Lehrer had plagiarized and used false information in multiple other works. Ronson then finds out that Lehrer is planning on giving a apology at a foundation dinner in front of a live twitter stream. During his apology the people on the twitter feed were ruthless, and weren't convinced of Lehrer's apology. Later it was found out that Lehrer accepted a 20,000 dollar speaking fee for doing his apology. When the media found out about this Jonah lost any respect that he had left. The chapter ended with Ronson talking about how

Once he has cleared the air about Jonah and explained to him everything that they have talked about they start again. They begin to compare the figures that Jonah gave him to their own company.

Jonah was given the task of delivering God’s message of impending judgment to a society that Jonah despised.
John Walton’s The Object Lesson on Jonah 4:5-7 and the Purpose of the Book of Jonah is a very enlightening work of research. In this article, Walton seeks to reveal to us that Jonah chapter four and particularly the object lesson in verses 5-7, holds the key to our understanding of the purpose of the book of Jonah. He highlights Jonah’s anger which is caused by how God responds to Nineveh’s repentance. Walton also reveals to us the significance of the author’s intended purpose for including this incidence in the book. He concludes that the message of Jonah is a theological message. Before reading this article, I must admit that my understanding of Jonah has always been from a missiological perspective. I had never considered the fact that the
In the beginning of his book, Levi focuses on people’s memories of what happened. Every side seems to have a justification to their actions. In today’s world, audiences cannot understand why a Nazi could say he/she
He pretended not to be a jew lover. 1933 concentration camps were all Jews were put to kill or use as “slaves”, a Jewish family with a married couple were sent to a concentration camp in Auschwitz, where a nazi soldier called Kurzbach that has black hair, white skin and green eyes were friends with the family, when the family got there and Kurzbach recognize the family from a friend that especially told Kurzbach to keep an eye on the Jewish family, while the Jewish family were entering the camp, Kurzbach started to yell at the family and separate the couple but the family recognizes Kurzbach and got less nervous, when the family got separated Kurzbach immediately went to look for the family, first he went with Conrad in the night when kurzbach was guarding the camp, walking around the camp, he suddenly found Conrad that was waiting for him, he approaches to Conrad, “Hey, here a piece of bread, I can’t be here much longer, I will go with your wife and give her food, later I tell you the plan”, Kurzbach told him whispering, “Thank you” Conrad said. Kurzbach went looking for Leah, but he couldn’t find her, the other nazi soldier saw him, “What are you doing here, go where you belong” nazi soldier said,
There may also be some bias within the book; Meinhof wrote a large number of columns, however only twenty-four were selected for this manuscript. The editor may have picked work, which painted Meinhof in a more favourable light. Bauer, stated in the book’s introduction she wants Meinhof to be remembered for what she was (a great writer) and not only for the violence her name has become synonym with. However, readers should make up their own mind as to how they want to remember Meinhof, and should not be swayed by the limited work being
Ron Rosenbaum utilizes diction as he uses words such as “criminality,” “authorship,” and “ostentatiously” in order to portray Adolf Hitler as a wicked murderer. Furthermore, Rosenbaum proclaims unlike a true believer, Adolf Hitler recognized that his horrendous crimes exceeded a boundary. As a result, Adolf Hitler tries to conceal his crimes instead of boasting about them. Such evidence authenticates that Adolf Hitler had committed mass murder in order to promote himself as a powerful leader rather than eliminating a threat to humanity. This notion is also applicable to Macbeth as he was also an actor who became convinced by his own act.
The LORD is not going to allow His servant to have this wrong attitude, so He confronts Jonah with a question: 4 Then the LORD said, “Is it right for you to be angry?” This is a conversation between God and Jonah. We’re third party. Jonah is saying to God, “I’m mad that You spared the Ninevites and forgave them and showed Your love and mercy!”
The first chapter is entitle The Nazi as Criminal inside and outside the Holocaust, and is indicative of the issues Lang confronts. One outstanding question here is the focus given to the
Chapter seventeen is about Hollywood in the 21st century . This chapter describes the advanced movies, such as animated ones, like Dawn of the Planet of the Apes . I find it very interesting how these films started from no sound at all or color to being able to see such vibrant colors and sound effects and quality that makes you feel as if you're there in the film. I enjoyed reading about this chapter because it's amazing how far technology has advanced, and to know that there's so much more to come is unbelievable, and I simply can't wait.

From Jonah’s perspective, chapter one deals with Jonah’s rejection of God’s plan. Chapter two is about Jonah’s reflection on what’s happened to him as he is sitting in the bottom of a whale trying to figure this out. Chapter three deals with Jonah’s correction as he begins to understand that he needs to change things. In the end, chapter four deals with Jonah’s objection. Jonah gets mad because the people he hated got saved. He just doesn’t get what God is trying to show him.
Rohm is that he wants to tell the truth, his side of the truth. And he believes that Peter Rohm is the perfect person to defend him as Peter is known for having an interest in Josef Mengele due to his book One of Us. However, the concept of being “one of them”, ironically, seems to escape Mengele. His audience is made up of people with either Jewish or Nazi ancestors. The Jewish descendants are going to feel personally antagonized by his foul deeds. And the people with Nazi roots are going to feel guilty due to their connection with him. Throughout his entire argument, Mengele never once expressed any remorse for his actions. He simply justifies everything he did as being out of compassion. He believes that it is okay to sacrifice the few to save the many. This would have been an effective appeal to logos and pathos if he would’ve qualified it with instances in which he could’ve done better or apologized for some experiments gone wrong. But he stubbornly maintains his sense of innocence further dragging himself
The book of Jonah is short, compassing four brief chapters of 48 verses. Despite brevity, it is a powerful story of God’s grace to Gentiles and a reflective study into God’s character and mercy. Jonah is a story of contrasts. It reveals God’s greatness and man’s pettiness. God was gracious and Jonah peevish. It is a story of repentance. The sailors repented from following false gods to trusting the one true God. Jonah repented from fleeing God to obeying Him. The Ninevites repented from wickedness to righteousness. Some think God is absent from the world’s affairs and that the world goes on unnoticed by Him. Jonah 1:1-2 should arrest one’s attention. God is aware of all man does. In most cases, He allows man to do as he will and
