04:23

Tobias caught the fish by a tail and

04:26

threw it to the riverbank mines can open

the burning of the flesh and keep the

04:39

heart liver and gall aside but why these

04:44

organs of the fish my friend listen

04:48

carefully divide by volume your heart

04:51

and with all of the fish we can change

04:55

evil spirits away but then by the God

04:59

when you acquire this call on the eyes

05:02

of mortals and they even get their soul

05:05

that's wonderful we can use this to help

05:08

my father Daniel thank you for telling

05:16

Medea after many days of travel Tobias

05:20

05:25

turn of events Tobias fell in love with

05:27

his daughter Sarah he got married to her

05:30

Sarah had married many times before but

05:34

there was an evil spirit living in her

05:36

house who kept killing all her husband's

05:39

Azaria's I have married Sarah based on

05:44

him to do when he burned the heart and

06:31

liver of the fish the smoke from the

06:33

fire chased all the evil spirits away

06:36

Tobias was alive the next day and he

06:40

thanked as arias for helping him

06:44

08:37

a great story I'm confronted is there

08:41

any reference of angel the file and the

08:43

gospel hmm

08:45

there are no specific references

08:47

mentioning his name but in the Gospel of

08:50

st. John there is a reference to the

08:52

angel without mentioning his name was it

08:55

also related to the healing of the

08:56

people yes Jim John describes about the

09:00

pool in the Fez not an angel of the Lord

09:03

used to disturb the water in the pool

09:06

and whoever entered the water first

09:08

would get healed from their sickness

09:10

amazing yeah Joan the theologists

09:14

09:16

John is Raphael the Archangel all right

09:23

travelers you have just heard how the

09:26

angel accompanied Tobias to a distant

09:28

land and helped him during his journey

09:30

now I will tell you the story of the

09:33

statue of Raphael the Archangel kept in

09:36

a Naval Museum at Lisbon

09:39

a long time ago

09:46

the king of Portugal asked Vasco de Gama

09:49

a sailor to find a sea route to India

09:52

this was to help them trade spices

09:54

directly with India instead of going

09:57

10:01

10:03

12:13

profile the Archangels was really

12:16

interested have you ever seen how the

12:18

angel is depicted as a young man

12:28

helped Tobias Thank You uncle Francis
