The "fish" in Jonah has been subject to a lot of debate over the years. Some interpret the fish to actually be a very large fish or whale that did indeed swallow Jonah. Others suggest that the fish was a special creature (not like the fish we know today) that God used specifically for the task. Still others suggest that the story does not actually represent historical fact but rather is more like a parable to teach us about God and ourselves.
