Matthew 12:38-45 — The Sign of Jonah
Matt.12.38-45
38Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered him, saying, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you .” 39But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet. 40For just as Jonah was in the belly of the sea creature three days and three nights, so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. 41The men of Nineveh will rise in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at Jonah’s preaching, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here. 42The queen of the south will rise in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 43When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through waterless places seeking rest and does not find it. 44Then it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came out,’ and when it comes, it finds it empty, swept, and put in order. 45Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that person becomes worse than the first. So also will it be with this evil generation.”
