George Leo Haydock, on Tob 10:6

“And Tobias said to her: Hold thy peace, and be not troubled, our son is safe: that man with whom we sent him is very trusty.”

“That. Greek, “And she said to him, Be silent, deceive me not. My son is lost: and she went out daily into the road without, by which they departed. In the day time she eat no bread, and the night she spent in bewailing her son, Tobias, till the 14 days of the wedding were finished, which Raguel had adjured him to tarry there. And,” ver. 9. (Haydock) — Thus the converted Jews lament that Christ should so long abandon their nation, while some hope like Tobias, and others are in more suspense, like his wife. (Ven. Bede) — So Catholics, in countries fallen into heresy, are in great distress for their brethren; (Romans ix.) While some more confidently hope that God will enlighten our nation again, as sight was restored to old Tobias. (Worthington)”
