George Leo Haydock, on Jdt 8:18

“For we have not followed the sins of our fathers, who forsook their God, and worshipped strange gods.”

“For. Greek, “As there has not arisen in our families generations, nor is there at this day either tribe, or family, or populace, or city among us, adoring gods made with hands, as it happened in days past;” in the former part of the reign of Manasses. All had begun to open their eyes, at the sight of the dreadful catastrophe. (Haydock)”
