    Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [3]

    JONAS . 1. Esther 9:1 Esther 9:1 = Ezra 10:6 Jehohanan , Nehemiah 12:23 Johanan. 2. Esther 9:23 Esther 9:23 = Ezra 10:23 Eliezer . 3. 2Es 1:39 the prophet Jonah 4:1-11 . See John, No. 6.

    Smith's Bible Dictionary [4]

    Jo'nas. (a dove).

    1. The prophet Jonah. Matthew 12:39; Matthew 12:40-41; Matthew 16:4.

    2. Father of Peter. John 21:15-17. See Jona.

    Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [5]

    (Ι᾿ωνᾶς , for the Heb. Jonah), the Graecized form of the name of three men in the Apocrypha and New Testament.

    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).

    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.

    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.
