Tobit was written originally in Aramaic, perhaps in Hebrew. It was included in the Septuagint (Greek) Bible and can be found in Catholic and Orthodox Bibles.

This western, published around 1899, is a dime novel that has it all: roguish gun men, hostile Indians, chilvarous gentlemen to protect the hapless females, and – in Calamity Jane – even a female who can hold her own. The fictional character of the hero, Deadwood Dick, appeared in more than a hundred stories and became so famous the name was claimed by several men who actually lived in Deadwood, South Dakota.

In his letter to the believers in the city of Philippi (in the province of ancient Macedonia), the Apostle Paul exudes an attitude of JOY, in spite of his own imprisonment and impending trial. He preaches of unity as a matter of contention and conflict arises in the fellowship, encouraging them to settle the matter and come together as the Body of Christ. He sees attempts on the part of those who would have the believers sink back into the Law of Moses, and reassures the believers in Christ that He, not the Law, is sufficient for eternal life. He seems to say, “Be JOYOUS, UNITED, and SATISFIED with and in Christ, my children!!!” – Summary by Mark Penfold [chương_files]
