George Leo Haydock, on Jdt 6:2

“Because thou hast prophesied unto us, saying: That the nation of Israel is defended by their God, to shew thee that there is no God, but Nabuchodonosor:”

“To shew. Greek, “and who is God but Nabuchodonosor? He will,” &c. (Haydock) — They allow the title to none but their king. Neither will God admit of any rival. (Worthington) — The generous advice of Achior was highly resented. Charidemus, who spoke with the like boldness to Darius, when Alexander approached, was even put to death, though the king repented when it was too late. (Curtius iii.) (Diodorus xiv.)”
