219. The eminence of the community of Prophet Yunus.
The communities that did not accept messengers sent by Allah were given enough oppertunity and chances before being destroyed.
Though signs of destruction were eminent, those communities did not return to the straight path.As an exception the community of Prophet Yunus, on seeing the signs of destruction to come, returned to the straight path.
In this verse (10:98) of the Quran Allah asks couldn’t the other communities do the same to escape His wrath.
