In this episode, Peace & Toodles crack open one of the most overlooked and mysterious books of the Apocrypha — The Book of Tobit. It’s a tale that blends faith, folklore, and the supernatural: an angel in disguise, a young man on a fateful journey, and a demon who must be banished.
From ancient exorcism rituals to Talmudic accounts of spirits and night demons, we explore how this strange little book bridges the gap between Scripture and the unseen world. What does Tobit’s story reveal about ancient ideas of protection, purity, and divine intervention? And how do these threads connect to the broader web of Jewish demonology and folklore?
Join us as we venture into one of the Bible’s most haunting side chapters — where the sacred and the strange walk hand in hand.
