By Naomi's instruction5. Ruth lies at Boaz's feet 8. Boaz acknowledges the right of a kinsman 14. He sends her away with six measures of barley I will do everything you say This phrase reflects Ruth's obedience and trust in Naomi, her mother-in-law. In the cultural context of ancient Israel, family loyalty and respect for elders were highly valued. Ruth's commitment to follow Naomi's instructions demonstrates her dedication and willingness to embrace the customs and traditions of Naomi's people. This act of submission is significant, as it sets the stage for the unfolding of God's providential plan in Ruth's life. Her obedience can be seen as a type of Christ's submission to the Father's will, as seen in Philippians 2:8, where Jesus humbles Himself and becomes obedient to death on the cross. Ruth answered Persons / Places / Events 1. RuthA Moabite widow who has shown great loyalty to her mother-in-law, Naomi. Her actions in this chapter demonstrate her faith and obedience. 2. Naomi Ruth's mother-in-law, who guides Ruth in seeking security and provision through Boaz, a relative of Naomi's deceased husband. 3. Boaz A wealthy and influential relative of Naomi's late husband, Elimelech. He is a kinsman-redeemer, a concept rooted in Hebrew law that allows a relative to redeem or marry a widow to preserve the family line. 4. Threshing Floor The location where Ruth approaches Boaz. It is a place of work and harvest, symbolizing provision and blessing. 5. Bethlehem The setting of the account, a town in Judah, which is significant as the future birthplace of Jesus Christ. Teaching Points Obedience and TrustRuth 3:5 demonstrates Ruth's willingness to obey Naomi's instructions, showing trust in her wisdom and God's provision. God's Provision The account highlights how God provides for His people through relationships and community, encouraging believers to seek and offer support within the body of Christ. Faith in Action Ruth's actions are a testament to her faith, reminding us that faith often requires us to step out of our comfort zones and act. Role of Mentorship Naomi's guidance to Ruth underscores the importance of mentorship and discipleship in the Christian life. Redemption and Hope The role of Boaz as a kinsman-redeemer points to the ultimate redemption found in Christ, offering hope and restoration.(5) I will do.--Ruth's obedience here is an intelligent obedience. She knew in what relation Boaz stood for her family, and the duties attaching to the relationship (Ruth 2:20; Ruth 3:9). Thus with obedient trust, implicitly but not blindly, she follows her mother-in-law's orders; strong in conscious innocence she risks the obloquy that may attend her duty.Verse 5. - And she said, All that thou sayest I will do. There is no need for adopting into the text the K'ri "to me," after the expression, All that thou sayest." It is a mere "tittle," indeed, whether we omit or insert the pronoun; yet it was not found in the manuscripts that lay before the Septuagint and Vulgate translators. Parallel Commentaries ...
