- Title
Biblicized Narrative: On Tobit and Genesis 22.
- Authors
Novick, Tzvi
- Abstract
An essay is presented which examines biblical allusions in the apocryphal book of Tobit. It focuses on Tobit 6 and its relationship to the story of the journey of Isaac in the book of Genesis 22 from the Old Testament of the Bible. The author argues that biblical allusion in Tobit should be understood in light of Jewish literary practices following the Second Temple period following the return from exile in Babylon.
