וַיְמַ֤ן יְהוָה֙ דָּ֣ג גָּד֔וֹל לִבְלֹ֖עַ אֶת־יוֹנָ֑ה וַיְהִ֤י יוֹנָה֙ בִּמְעֵ֣י הַדָּ֔ג שְׁלֹשָׁ֥ה יָמִ֖ים וּשְׁלֹשָׁ֥ה לֵילֽוֹת׃
Lalu Yang Mahakekal menyediakan seekor ikan besar untuk menelan Yunus, dan Yunus berada di dalam perut ikan itu tiga hari tiga malam.
Tikkunei Zohar
At that moment, "Ad-nai appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah/Yonah/the dove" (Jonah 2:1) - This is the first exile, about which it is written "and Jonah went down to the bowels of the ship" (Jonah 1:5). And this is "I will go with you to Egypt" (Gen. 46:4), as we maintain "in every place that Israel was exiled the Shechinah was with them" (see Zohar 2:7a and Megillah 29a).
Tikkunei Zohar
In that time (of the first exile) it was said about them (Israel) "And a new king arose in Egypt" (Ex. 1:8) and this is Pharaoh, about whom it is written "Ad-nai appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah", since he wanted to erase Israel from the world, as it is written "every son that is born you will throw into the Nile" (Ex. 1:22),
Tikkunei Zohar
similarly "Ad-nai appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah" to kill him. It is not written "to swallow Jonah" but "to swallow ET Jonah" and the particle ET is there to include the Faithful Shepherd [Moshe] who would bring Torah in his hands, which is from ALEF to TAV, and all reincarnations were in his hands, and this is the great fish, about which it is written "the great serpent" (Ezekiel 29:3), which is the fish of Egypt and its partner is Dagah (Jonah 2:2) and "the bowels of the Dagah" are Egypt.
