Part 2- Biblical Allusions: The Book of Ruth

The Book of Ruth    Biblical Allusion   Source: The Old Testament

• A love story
• Its purpose was to show love, and faithfulness that God desires for us
• Ruth remain loyal to Naomi after her husband dies and her in-laws
• Her family gives her extra grain to eat
• Boaz and Ruth are married and conceive a son

Commentary: Despite all that Ruth has gone through, the loss of her husband and in-laws she still finds it in her heart to love other people. She still remains close with her mother-in-law despite the death of her husband. In my personal life, my second cousin lost her husband and still remains close with her mother in law, just because of all the memories they share together.
