George Leo Haydock, on Tob 1:17

“And when amongst a great multitude of his kindred, he saw Gabelus in want, who was one of his tribe, taking a note of his hand he gave him the aforesaid sum of money.”

“Money. People might formerly make use of what was merely deposited in their hands. (Ulpian.) — The old Latin version has, “I committed to him ten talents in gold.””
