Ruth Resting

Ruth Chapter 3

August 20, 2022 • Kaye Moyo • Ruth 3

Naomi knows that for Ruth, there is only one way to get rest and that is when she marries the right man. Therefore, she is now taking the initiative, while in Ruth chapter 2, Ruth is taking the initiative to provide food. The rest that Naomi is looking for is that Ruth will marry Boaz and find rest in her own home, her own family with children.

Ruth Reaping

Immediately after the scene of the beginning of the barley harvest at the end of the previous chapter, attention is drawn to Boaz. He is the second man to be mentioned in this book. The first man, Elimelech, has failed. The second man is not weak, but powerful and he restores everything in which the first man has failed.

Ruth Receiving

August 27, 2022 • Wendy Kandi • Ruth 4

The book of Ruth describes the grace of God. Despite the sin and apostasy of the people of Israel during the times of the Judges, God is fulfilling His promises in regard to the coming Messiah. Whereas the book illustrates the theological concept of redemption beautifully, its primary purpose appears to have been to reveal how God often providentially works behind the scenes to bring His will to pass. This chapter is about Boaz. After Ruth took the initiative in ch.2 and Naomi took the initiative in ch.3, Boaz takes the initiative in this chapter. He starts acting to finally be able to take Ruth to his wife.
