Titian, The Archangel Raphael and Tobias (c. 1512−1514). Tobias and the Angel is the traditional title of depictions in art of a passage from the Book of Tobit in which Tobias, son of Tobit, travels with the Archangel Raphael without realising he is an angel (5.5–6) and is then instructed by Raphael what to do with a giant fish he catches (6.2–9).
Rembrandt: Tobit Accusing Anna of Stealing the Kid (1626) The Book of Tobit (/ ˈ t oʊ b ɪ t /) [a] [b] is an apocryphal Jewish work from the 3rd or early 2nd century BCE which describes how God tests the faithful, responds to prayers, and protects the covenant community (i.e., the Israelites). [1]
Rembrandt's teacher, Pieter Lastman, had painted a scene from near the end of the story, The Angel Raphael Takes Leave of Old Tobit and his Son Tobias, in which Tobit and Tobias kneel in pious gratitude before the winged Raphael; and Rembrandt himself later painted Raphael's heavenward departure in The Archangel Raphael Leaving Tobias' Family.

Raphael (UK: / ˈ r æ f eɪ ə l / RAF-ay-əl, US: / ˈ r æ f i ə l, ˈ r eɪ f-/ RA(Y)F-ee-əl; "God has healed") [a] is an archangel first mentioned in the Book of Tobit and in 1 Enoch, both estimated to date from between the 3rd and 2nd century BCE.
The Archangel Raphael Leaving Tobias' Family is a 1637 oil-on-panel painting by Rembrandt, now in the Louvre, in Paris, France. [1] The painting depicts a scene from the Book of Tobit, in which the archangel Raphael departs after guiding Tobias on his journey and helping to cure the blindness of his father, Tobit.
The work, in oil paint and tempera on a poplar panel, measures 32.7 cm × 23.5 cm (12.9 in × 9.3 in). It depicts a biblical scene of Tobias and Raphael. In the Book of Tobit, Tobias, son of the blinded Tobit, was sent from Nineveh to Ecbatana to collect a debt.
The story of Anna, her husband Tobit and their son Tobias is told in the apocryphal Book of Tobit. God tested them by reducing them to poverty and causing Tobit's blindness. In the 17th century they were considered to be examples of piety in adversity.
Tobias with his fish was an early type of baptism. Raphael leading Tobias always expresses protection, and especially protection to the young. The picture is believed to have been painted around 1512–1514 to commemorate the introduction of Book of Tobit to the canonical books of the Roman Catholic Church. St.
