| Judith 11:5 | For as Nabuchodonosor, the king of the earth liveth, and his power liveth, which is in thee for chastising of all straying souls: not only men serve him through thee, but also the beasts of the field obey him. | Liveth. She imitates Joseph, (Genesis 42:15.) and Eliseus; (4 Kings 2:4.) and speaks the truth, as the general had subjected many to his master. (Menochius) --- Her speech was not superstitious, but shewed a civil respect. (Calmet) |
