??Tobit’s Final Counsel

(Nah 1.2–3.19; Zech 8.20–23)

14 So ended Tobit’s words of praise.

2 Tobita died in peace when he was one hundred twelve years old, and was buried with great honor in Nineveh. He was sixty-twob years old when he lost his eyesight, and after regaining it he lived in prosperity, giving alms and continually blessing God and acknowledging God’s majesty.

3 When he was about to die, he called his son Tobias and the seven sons of Tobiasc and gave this command: “My son, take your children 4 and hurry off to Media, for I believe the word of God that Nahum spoke about Nineveh, that all these things will take place and overtake Assyria and Nineveh. Indeed, everything that was spoken by the prophets of Israel, whom God sent, will occur. None of all their words will fail, but all will come true at their appointed times. So it will be safer in Media than in Assyria and Babylon. For I know and believe that whatever God has said will be fulfilled and will come true; not a single word of the prophecies will fail. All of our kindred, inhabitants of the land of Israel, will be scattered and taken as captives from the good land; and the whole land of Israel will be desolate, even Samaria and Jerusalem will be desolate. And the temple of God in it will be burned to the ground, and it will be desolate for a while.d

5 “But God will again have mercy on them, and God will bring them back into the land of Israel; and they will rebuild the temple of God, but not like the first one until the period when the times of fulfillment shall come. After this they all will return from their exile and will rebuild Jerusalem in splendor; and in it the temple of God will be rebuilt, just as the prophets of Israel have said concerning it. 6 Then the nations in the whole world will all be converted and worship God in truth. They will all abandon their idols, which deceitfully have led them into their error; 7 and in righteousness they will praise the eternal God. All the Israelites who are saved in those days and are truly mindful of God will be gathered together; they will go to Jerusalem and live in safety forever in the land of Abraham, and it will be given over to them. Those who sincerely love God will rejoice, but those who commit sin and injustice will vanish from all the earth. 8 So now, my children, I command you, serve God faithfully and do what is pleasing in his sight. Your children are also to be commanded to do what is right and to give alms, and to be mindful of God and to bless his name at all times with sincerity and with all their strength. So now, my son, leave Nineveh; do not remain here. 10 On whatever day you bury your mother beside me, do not stay overnight within the confines of the city. For I see that there is much wickedness within it, and that much deceit is practiced within it, while the people are without shame. See, my son, what Nadab did to Ahikar who had reared him. Was he not, while still alive, brought down into the earth? For God repaid him to his face for this shameful treatment. Ahikar came out into the light, but Nadab went into the eternal darkness, because he tried to kill Ahikar. Because he gave alms, Ahikare escaped the fatal trap that Nadab had set for him, but Nadab fell into it himself, and was destroyed. 11 So now, my children, see what almsgiving accomplishes, and what injustice does—it brings death! But now my breath fails me.”

Death of Tobit and Anna

Then they laid him on his bed, and he died; and he received an honorable funeral. 12 When Tobias’s mother died, he buried her beside his father. Then he and his wife and childrenf returned to Media and settled in Ecbatana with Raguel his father-in-law. 13 He treated his parents-in-lawg with great respect in their old age, and buried them in Ecbatana of Media. He inherited both the property of Raguel and that of his father Tobit. 14 He died highly respected at the age of one hundred seventeenh years. 15 Before he died he heardi of the destruction of Nineveh, and he saw its prisoners being led into Media, those whom King Cyaxaresj of Media had taken captive. Tobiask praised God for all he had done to the people of Nineveh and Assyria; before he died he rejoiced over Nineveh, and he blessed the Lord God forever and ever. Amen.l 1

Revelation From God

Author


The author of Tobit is Tobit and his son Tobiah, whom pick up after Tobit’s death.


Date


The book had to been written around 721 BC, because Tobit is in living in Nineveh after the Israelite are deport there around 722-721 BC.


History


Tobit, a devout and wealthy Israelite living among the captives deported to Nineveh from the Northern Kingdom of Israel in 722/721 B.C., suffers severe reverses and is finally blinded.1


1?New American Bible, Revised Edition. (Washington, DC: The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, 2011), Tob.


Tobit is a book within the deuterocanonical literature (sometimes also called the Apocrypha). As such, it is deemed canonical by Roman Catholics, but generally not by Protestants. The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS), however, has proved to be a watershed for our understanding of Tobit. Fragments of Tobit have been found among the DSS in both Aramaic and Hebrew, proving that it was written in Aramaic, not Greek. As a result, the philological criterion (that it should not be deemed canonical because it was not written in a semitic language) originally used to justify Tobit’s proscription rests on shoddy footing. Although not canonical for large segments of Christianity, the book of Tobit will prove salutary for anyone interested in studying Scripture. Many Christians, including early pillars of the faith (e.g., Origen, Clement), have read it as “Scripture.” Tobit also contributes to an understanding of the biblical world. It is unique as the only text that envisions the Assyrian exile and deportation as its hypothetical historical referent. Tobit provides a more extended picture of quotidian Jewish family life than any other biblical book. Finally, the book of Tobit is a serious piece of narrative theology. Although enshrined in a folktale, it strives to say something profound in conversation with contemporaneous theological formulations. It intentionally engages Deuteronomy, Job, and Sirach as conversation partners.


Tobit is among the Apocrypha books in which the Catholic church makes canonical at The Counsel of Trent, December 13, 1545-December 4th, 1563.


Theology


This is an allegorical retelling to Tobit’s life and his son (Tobiah) trip o Media, along with the Arch Angel Raphael. We are given a deep hunger for faith and walking in the ways of righteousness by Tobit and Tobiah. That when we do YHWH will protect and guide us!!!!


Structure


The inspired author of the book used the literary form of religious novel (as in Esther and Judith) for the purpose of instruction and edification. The seemingly historical data, names of kings, cities, etc., are used as vivid details not only to create interest and charm, but also to illustrate the negative side of the theory of retribution: the wicked are indeed punished.


Although the Book of Tobit is usually listed with the historical books, it more correctly stands midway between them and the wisdom literature. It contains numerous maxims like those found in the wisdom books (cf. 4:3–19, 21; 12:6–10; 14:7, 9) as well as standard wisdom themes: fidelity to the law, intercessory function of angels, piety toward parents, purity of marriage, reverence for the dead, and the value of almsgiving, prayer, and fasting. The book makes Tobit a relative of Ahiqar, a noted hero of ancient Near Eastern wisdom literature and folklore.1
