Mar 16, 2014 • Mitch Wilburn • Ruth
Chapter 9 underscores the importance of faithful love in human relationships among God's kingdom people. The story focuses on Ruth's unserving and selfless devotion to desolate Naomi and on Boaz's kindness to these two widows. It tells of redemption that transforms despair into happiness through selfless God blessed acts. This chapter is also an episode in the ancestry of the coming King David and even of the great "Son of David" that will, through selfless devotion, bring about grand redemption.
