Tobias — Chapter 14
These annotations are from the original 1609 Douay Old Testament, the first complete English Catholic Bible translation, produced by English scholars in exile at the English College of Douai. The archaic spelling is preserved.
This content was digitized from the original 1609 Douay (Old Testament) and 1582 Rheims (New Testament) print editions by OCR. The OCR process sometimes confused print page numbers with verse numbers, and may have assigned annotations to the wrong chapter. Chapter and verse labels on this page reflect the OCR output from the original print pagination and may not correspond to canonical Scripture chapter/verse numbers. For canonical reference, consult a standard Douay-Rheims edition. The annotation texts themselves are authentic 1609/1582 Douay-Rheims content.
Verse 7
This can not be understood of the citie of Jerusalem but of the Church of Christ.
Verse 10
Gods servants must not only expect children that they doe iustice and almes-deeds, that they be mindful of what shal be commanded, but also seeke to know what they ought to doe.
Verse 13
A notable commendation of Tobias family & posteritie. And a plaine testimonie that true Religion never failed wholy in the tenne tribes, much lesse in the Kingdome of Iuda, least of al in the Church of Christ and new Testament.
