They could have only been remembering the words of Christ concerning Jonah, or his statement about the temple.

Sadly, they did not believe, no matter how well they understood.

Your grace is endless. Your love is unconditional. Your justice is so fair. Your righteousness is glorious. Your holiness is complete. You inspire awe. You are the ruler of all, reigning without a hint of weakness or wavering. Your enemies are a joke. They cannot withstand You. They might as well give up. I praise You Father. You have made the way of escape from sin. Oh what joy You have opened to us! I pray all this and praise You in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
