“And the Lord God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.”
The statement that the LORD appointed a plant to grow up over Jonah that it might be a shade over his head indicates divine provision for Jonah's physical comfort. The growth of the plant provides relief from the scorching heat. This verse demonstrates God's concern for Jonah's well-being.
