As reported by Maria Cramer in yesterday's Times, a man was almost swallowed by a humpback whale off the coast of Provincetown, on Cape Cod (https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/12/us/humpback-whale-lobster-diver-cape-cod.html?referringSource=articleShare).
This reminded our Chief Theological Correspondent, associate solitary reporter Jim Bob Hobarto, that Donald Trump has never read the Hebew Bible.
Before he was awarded the Distinguished Service Award by the Unitarian Universalist Association, Hobarto was Professor of Hebrew Bible at the Starr King School for the Ministry in Berkeley,
California. That’s where most Unitarian Universalist ministerial candidates prepare for the Unitarian Universalist ministry.
In the Book of Jonah, according to the fable, Jonah found himself in the belly of a big fish for three days and three nights (Jonah 1:17).
It was the indomitable Hobarto who revised what Cramer had observed.
“SR,” he just texted us, “it wasn’t the lobsterman, Michael Packard, as Cramer reported.”
“It was some ruffian who lives in exile in Mar-a-Lago.”
