George Leo Haydock, on Tob 11:1

“And as they were returning they came to Charan, which is in the midway to Ninive, the eleventh day.”

“Charan. Not the residence of Abraham, Genesis xii. 4. Syriac reads, “Bazri,” or “Carrac.” Old Vulgate, ibat Caracha, quĉ est civitas in Ninive. Arrian places Carcha in Assyria, and Ptolemy mentions a Characa in Susiana. — Midway. At this rate, the distance from Ninive to Ecbatana would be 22 days’ journey. But it is not half so much for a man travelling expeditiously. (Calmet) — Tobias had much luggage. Leaving it with his wife, (Haydock) he went from this city to Ninive in three or four days, ver. 18. (Calmet) — Greek, “And he travelled on till he came near to Ninive. And Raphael said,” &c.”
