Catholic 1849 · Haydock’s Catholic Bible Commentary, Judith 11:15

George Leo Haydock, on Jdt 11:15

George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Jdt 11:15 · Douay-Rheims
“And he will tell me when he will repay them for their sins, and I will come and tell thee, so that I may bring thee through the midst of Jerusalem, and thou shalt have all the people of Israel, as sheep that have no shepherd, and there shall not so much as one dog bark against thee:”
On this verse:
“He will. Greek, “They shall have completed their sins.” — Tell thee. Greek adds, “and thou shalt go out with all thy forces, and none of them shall resist thee; and I will bring thee through Judea, over-against Jerusalem, and will place thy throne in the midst of it, and thou shalt drive them like sheep,” &c. — Dog. This is proverbial, Exodus xi. 7. (Calmet) — All Israel was at rest after the death of Holofernes. Judith brought his head in triumph through the country. The promise of dominion (Haydock) was ironical, 3 Kings xxii. 15. (Menochius)”
