This is a great one!
A lot of things are common between the two and contrasting too.

Moses was presumed dead. Jonah was presumed dead.

The Israelites had turned away from God and so did the Ninevites.

God's wrath was kindled against the two.

They turned back to God with fasting.

I found a lot of words and phrases in common which I can't show everything right now. But check fierce anger/wrath; repent; evil.

Also check David's fasting in 2 Samuel 11 also in spoke 10.

That's really a great one! I really enjoy it. And, as you said, there's a lot in common between Exodus 32 and Book 32. I wish had the time to expound it all. The most striking to me is the KeyLink based on the phrase "repented of the evil".

By the way, the mention of David's fasting is in 2 Samuel chapter 12.
