Ruth 1:1
Book Introduction - Ruth
Read first chapter of Ruth This lovely story should be read in connection with the first half of Judges, as it presents a picture of life in Israel at that time. Typically, the book may be taken as a foreview of the church (Ruth), as the Gentile bride of Christ, the Bethlehemite who is able to redeem. Ruth also gives a normal Christian experience:Ruth deciding, 1
Ruth serving, 2.
Ruth resting, 3.
Ruth rewarded, 4.
The events recorded in Ruth cover a period of 10 years (Ussher) famine (See Scofield "Genesis 12:10"). Bethlehemjudah House of Bread and Praise.
