Vallance, G F - The Book Of Ruth 1.0
1
Author:

e-Sword Version:
9.x - 10.x
The Book of Ruth also has a typical meaning. Naomi stands for the people of Israel, Ruth for the remnant restored to Christ (Boas) on the basis of grace.
There is only one Book in the whole Bible devoted solely to the history of a woman, and that is the Book of Ruth, and with the single exception of the Book of Esther, it is the only book that even bears a woman's name.
In the Book of Esther we have the record of a Jewish maiden marrying a Gentile Monarch, whilst in the Book of Ruth we have a Gentile bride and a Jewish husbandman. We observe also that this most interesting personage is named in the first chapter of the New Testament, in the genealogy of the Saviour, so that our study is of no mean interest.
The Book of Ruth is the eighth in the Bible, which fact, as the eighth day, reminds us of another start, a fresh beginning, the introduction of something new. This is seen in Ruth the Gentile finding grace in the sight of Boaz. Our present treatise will, we trust, set forth this fact to the profit of many.
