George Leo Haydock, on Tob 6:6

“And when he had done so, he roasted the flesh thereof, and they took it with them in the way: the rest they salted as much as might serve them, till they came to Rages the city of the Medes.”

“Flesh. St. Paul uses the like expression, (1 Corinthians xv.) as well as Pliny, [Natural History?] ix. 15. (Worthington) — Took. Greek and Fagius, (Calmet) “eat, and both went on till they came near to Ecbatana.” (Haydock) — From Ninive to Rages would be 10 or 12 days’ journey. (Calmet)”
