This article examines the exilic theme of many inner-biblical allusions in the book of Jonah. Although there are few allusions to the Babylonian exile itself, allusions to the primeval and exodus narratives focus upon and draw out the exilic motifs in those texts. The allusions characterize the prophet Jonah, accentuating his wrongdoing and dissatisfaction while also indicating a more hopeful outcome for him than the ending of the book would otherwise suggest. Furthermore, the allusions illustrate the literary approach of the author in using biblical narratives to enrich his own story while simultaneously influencing the reader’s interpretation of the texts that he evokes. This insight into the author’s techniques is informative for exploring other instances of inner-biblical allusion in the book.

约拿书和被掳的主题

本文考察了约拿书中许多圣经内部典故的流放主题。虽然对巴比伦流放本身的典故很少，但对原始和出埃及记叙事的典故集中并引出了这些文本中的流放主题。这些典故刻画了先知约拿的特征，强调了他的错误和不满，同时也表明他的结局比本书结尾所暗示的更有希望。此外，典故说明了作者使用圣经叙事丰富他自己的故事，同时影响读者对他所唤起的文本的解释的文学方法。这种对作者技巧的洞察对于探索书中其他圣经内隐喻的例子很有帮助。
