| <p> ( '''''Ι᾿Ωνᾶς''''' '','' for the Heb. [[Jonah]] ) '','' the Graecized form of the name of three men in the [[Apocrypha]] and New Testament. </p> <p> '''1.''' The prophet JONAH (2 Esdr. 1, 39; Tobit 14:4; Tobit 14:8; Matthew 12:39-41; Matthew 16:4; Luke 11:29-30; Luke 11:32). </p> <p> '''2.''' A person occupying the same position in 1 [[Esdras]] 9:23 as ELIEZER in the corresponding list in Ezra 10:23. Perhaps the corruption originated in reading '''''אליעיני''''' for '''''אליעזר''''' , as appears to have been the case in 1 Esdras 9:32 (compare Ezra 10:31). The former would have caught the compiler's eye from Ezra 10:22, and the original form Elionas, as it appears in the Vulg., could easily have become Jonas. </p> <p> '''3.''' The father of the apostle Peter ( John 21:15-17). In John 1:42 the name is less correctly Anglicized "Jona" (some MSS. have '''''Ι᾿Ωάννης''''' ) ''.'' A.D. ante 25. (See [[Bar-Jona]]). Instead of '''''Ι᾿Ωνᾶ''''' (genitive) in all the above passages, good codices have '''''Ι᾿Ωάννου''''' or '''''Ι᾿Ωάνου''''' , which latter Lachmann has introduced into the text. Perhaps [[Jonas]] is but a contraction for Joannas ( Luke 3:27), which is the same as ''John.'' </p>
