Near the end of the book of Tobit, we read that the fall of Nineveh will fulfill the prophesy of Jonah. If Tobit dates to the 3rd century BC, why would Tobit cite Jonah? Nahum has a far more clear prophesy of the fall of Assyria. If Tobit is actually by someone from one of the exiled Northern tribes though, they would not have had access to a southern prophet like Nahum. The only prophets cited in Tobit (Amos and Jonah) are Northern kingdom prophets.
This also means that Jonah must predate the 7th century as well, defeating its late dating by modern scholars.
My regularly scheduled content is complete for this year, but will resume after Christmas. I may be doing a livestream or two over this time though (including one with a special guest if we can schedule a good time for it), so be on the lookout for those.
Thank you to everyone for all the support. I have wanted to start a youtube channel for years. You have all made my dream come true. In the few months I have been around, I have gotten 1,000 subscribers, 2,000 watch hours, and 17 patrons. I never expected this much support and it is highly appreciated. Please keep me in your prayers as we approach the feast of the Nativity.

Christos anesti! Christ is risen!
Sorry I have not created any content in a while. I was traveling and now I am sick with COVID. I will do another stream once I am well.
