The Book of Tobit: A Chaldee Text from a Unique Ms. in the Bodleian Library, published in 1878, is a scholarly work by Adolf Neubauer. The book focuses on the ancient Jewish text known as the Book of Tobit, which tells the story of Tobit, a righteous man who is blinded and impoverished by his enemies, and his son Tobias, who embarks on a journey to recover a debt owed to his father and to find a wife. Neubauer's work presents a Chaldee (Aramaic) version of the Book of Tobit, which he discovered in the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford. The book includes a transcription of the Chaldee text, an English translation, and extensive notes and commentary on the language, history, and cultural context of the text. Neubauer's analysis of the Book of Tobit sheds light on the religious and cultural practices of ancient Jewish communities, as well as their interactions with other cultures and religions.
