14. Summary
There’s a good man named Tobit living in Nineveh, the capital of Assyria. He is a descendent of the Israelites taken into slavery by the Assyrians. He is a faithful Israelite and wants to bury Israelites who die properly, which gets Him in trouble with King Sennacherib. Tobit is exiled from the city for a few years. He comes back once the King dies but soon becomes blind.
In the meantime in Persia, there is a woman named Sarah with a very big problem. She is being harassed by a demon named Asmodeus. Every time Sarah marries, Asmodeus kills her new husband on the wedding night. Soon, people think she is cursed
God sends the angel Raphael to solve these problems. Raphael disguises himself as a human and claims that he is a relative to Tobit’s family. He offers to help the family. Tobias, Tobit’s son, and Raphael go on a journey to Persia.

15. Summary
While along the Tigris River, a fish tries to eat Tobiah while Tobiah is washing in the river. Raphael tells Tobiah to kill it and keep the fish’s internal organs. When they get to Persia, Raphael tells Tobiah about Sarah, and that’d it’d be good for Tobiah to marry her.
Tobiah and Sarah marry, and Raphael tells Tobiah to burn the fish organs on the wedding night. The demon, Asmodeus, runs away to Egypt because of the smell. Raphael chases after Asmodeus and captures him.
The wedding celebrations continue so Tobiah asks Raphael to run some errands. After the party, Tobiah takes Sarah to Nineveh. Raphael joins them and tells Tobiah to use the burn fish organs on Tobit’s eyes. Tobit’s sight is restored! Raphael tells everyone that he’s an angel. Everyone praises God.
Tobit tells Tobiah and Sarah to leave Nineveh because God’s judgement will come on the city. Tobiah makes Persia his new home.

16. Why is Tobit not included in the Protestant canon?
After all, it has some good things: piety, honoring one’s parents, giving alms to the poor, intercessory prayer, marriage, and following the Law. 

17. Internal Problems
Historical errors- Tobit 1:15 incorrectly notes that Sennacherib was Shalmaneser’s son, rather than the son of Sargon II. Also, Tobit seems to imply that he was alive during the reign of Jeroboam I (about 930 B.C.), but at his death he was reported to be 117 years old. 
Theological errors- Tobit says that almsgiving will save someone. The NT says that we are saved by faith alone. Raphael’s suggestions seem more like magic rather than God’s power at work.

18. External Problems
Affirmation by others- The book of Tobit is not referenced to or quoted by other Books of the Old Testament or the New Testament.
Few copies and references- The Book of Tobit does not appear to be as widely used by the community of believers by the fact that few fragments and copies are found compared to other book of the Bible.
