Tradition says Samuel wrote it. The text doesn't name an author. But someone decided a Moabite widow's story needed to be preserved — and the genealogy at the end shows you why.
In this letter
- The mystery of authorship — Samuel and the Talmudic tradition
- The period of the judges as historical setting
- Why Moabites were forbidden from the assembly of the Lord (Deut 23:3)
- Ruth in the Hebrew Ketuvim (Writings) and the Megillot (festival scrolls)
- Why Ruth is read at Shavuot / Pentecost
- Matthew 1 and the women in the line of Christ
- The family tree of the Messiah, built from outsiders
Scripture
- Ruth 1:1 (the historical setting)
- Deuteronomy 23:3 (the Moabite exclusion)
- Judges 21:25 (the world Ruth was set in)
- Matthew 1:1-17 (referenced)
