Letter 038 — The Story: A Threshing Floor, a City Gate, a Baby (Ruth)
-

著者：
A foreign widow gleans in the field of a kinsman. A midnight scene on a threshing floor. A redemption at the city gate. A baby in the arms of a grandmother who had renamed herself Bitter.
In this letter
- Walking the four chapters of Ruth
- Davaq (H1692) — Ruth's clinging, the same Hebrew word as Genesis 2:24
- Bethlehem as house of bread, the irony of the famine
- The gleaning law (Lev 19:9-10, Deut 24:19)
- Boaz's hesed toward Ruth in the field
- Under your wing — Boaz's prayer becomes Ruth's request
- The threshing floor scene, slow
- The redemption at the city gate
- Obed, Jesse, David
Scripture
- Ruth 1-4 (full)
- Genesis 2:24 (the davaq parallel)
- Leviticus 19:9-10 (gleaning law, referenced)
Hebrew word studies
- davaq (דָּבַק, Strong's H1692) — to cling, to be joined. The marriage word.
- hesed (חֶסֶד, H2617) — covenant lovingkindness. Carried from Week 4.
