Tobit 2:9
“Tobias' relatives mocked him, and his wife reproached him, as if he had served God in vain. Rebuking and instructing them, he turned to God in prayer. In that people, there were some who, with foolish rashness, insulted the miseries of the people, which now differed greatly from the former happiness of the holy father…”
9The same night also I returned from the burial, and slept by the wall of my courtyard, being polluted and my face was uncovered:
Preparing…
Preparing…
Preparing…
7Therefore I wept: and after the going down of the sun I went and made a grave, and buried him.
8But my neighbours mocked me, and said, This man is not yet afraid to be put to death for this matter: who fled away; and yet, lo, he burieth the dead again.
— Tobit 2:9 —
10And I knew not that there were sparrows in the wall, and mine eyes being open, the sparrows muted warm dung into mine eyes, and a whiteness came in mine eyes: and I went to the physicians, but they helped me not: moreover Achiacharus did nourish me, until I went into Elymais.
11And my wife Anna did take women’s works to do.
