"I know that many understand this king of Nineveh (Jonah 3:6) to be the devil, who at the end of the world, since no creature that is rational and which was made by God may perish, will come down from his pride and repent and be restored to his former place. To confirm this opinion they also bring forward that example from Daniel where Nabuchadnezzar repented for seven years and was restored to his former kingdom (Daniel 4:30-37)."
