THE GOD OF GREAT REVERSALS
“Entreat me not to leave thee,
And to return home from following after thee; For whither thou goest, I will go; And where thou lodgest, I will lodge; Thy people are my people, and thy God, my God. Where thou diest, will I die, and there be buried; May God do so to me, and more also,
If aught but death part thee and me.” – (Ruth)
GOD BLESSES RUTH AND BOAZ
“Now in earlier times in Israel, for the redemption and transfer of property to become final, one party took off his sandal and gave it to the other. This was the method of legalizing transactions in Israel.) So the guardian redeemer said to Boaz, “Buy it yourself.” And he removed his sandal. Then Boaz announced to the elders and all the people, “Today you are witnesses that I have bought from Naomi all the property of Elimelek, Kilion and Mahlon.” – (Ruth 4:7-9)
