Answer: B. Figurative language.

Figurative language refers to using figures of speech in order to be more effective, persuasive or descriptive. It usually relies on using words in ways that differ from their literal accepted meanings. Therefore, this allows the author to use words in an unconventional way. In this case, the phrase does not mean that the warriors literally turned into hornets. Instead, it describes te warriors as being as violent, relentless and decisive as hornets.

Answer:

“ Jonah getting swallowed by a fish is really a story of Jonah being rescued by God. God did not give up on this self-serving prophet who wanted to do things his own way. If God wanted to give up on Jonah, he would have let him drown. He did not need Jonah to accomplish his purposes. God has every resource at his disposal. He could have easily used someone else to go to Nineveh, someone much more faithful, whose heart had some compassion and mercy toward others. He rescued Jonah not because he needed Jonah, but because Jonah needed him. You see, this really wasn’t about the Ninevites so much as it was about Jonah. Jonah was in need of God’s rescue – not just from drowning, but from the hardness of his own heart. God has every resource at his disposal. “
