Jonah, Tobit, Judith: Volume 25 (Volume 25) (New Collegeville Bible Commentary: Old Testament)

These three colorful books offer gripping stories of how God shows his mercy and accomplishes his will through human actions. Jonah is a reluctant prophet who must be swallowed by a whale before he delivers his message to Israel's ancient enemies at Nineveh that they must repent or face doom. Tobit tells of the trials and tribulations of a family, and the power of prayer as God sends an angel to guide Tobit's son Tobiah on a journey of resolution. In the book of Judith, a simple and courageous widow, rather than an army, saves her people from destruction by a powerful enemy.
This rich commentary explores the significant themes of each book, showing that God is intimately involved with the destiny of humankind.
