When I Die, Bury Me Well

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“People dig holes to find treasures. The author has dug deeply into the book of Tobit and has unearthed its narrative preoccupation with burial of the dead: a good burial is a statement of hope in God who gives life. Thus the author has found us a treasure. Now we can read the book of Tobit and be enriched by its all-encompassing appeal for mercy.”
