Framed in the setting of a famine, shrouded In own men 1 in it of real numan affection which makes the book one of the abiding glories of the Bible. it s been suggested that it has} rophetic and typleal significance, | :cially in connection with the ulti- mate calling of the Gentiles into the! inheritance of the grace of God with Israel and the relation of the Gen church of the present age to Christ as redeemed and beloved bride, for it introduces Ruth, the| Moabitish ancestress of David and our Lord. Although it records events dur- ing that rugged period of the Judges, Istael was finding herself as a_nation, largely throuzh the efforts | of men of faith (the national leaders, | whose work as reformers, deliverers| and vindicators of Israel ranks them ! with the Greek heroes, the Roman dictators and the American pioneers). this gem of oriental history does not deal with the stormy days of that age. It opens up a window through which we an see and study the every-day life of the Hebrew people in an hour when action is usually fol- lowed by a period of reaction, rest and repose, if not relapse and apos- tacy. We can nomic trace to unfavorable eco- conditions at home as the) e movement of the masses eir old home It has ration throughout the: uries and in all lands just as it made our America the melting the world. The restless of the viking of the northern part Furope and the on of the Athenian stock cradled beneath the Partheon, as well as the emigrants from other lands, that have flocked Lere. and those who desire to come| at this moment, have largely been| influenced by economic conditions. Famine in the usually fertile section around Bethlehem caused Elimelech to forsake the graves and groves of his fathers and seek in the rich, fer- tile and prosperous table lands of Moab relief from the afllictions of the famine Looking bevond the steaming val- of the Dead sea, one can see from Bethlehem the mountains of Moab like a purple wall against the 1 sky.

When she determined to return to Bethlehem to ae- ny her on her march homeward. she was friendless and! the aged mother-in-law stopped somewhere on her pilgrimage | toward Bethlehem to urge both of; the daughters-in-law to return to| Moab, where there was some hope of | securing husbands, happine Sy he placed before ther i a of the lone, the bitter lessons that she had learn- | ed during her days in Moab and pleaded with them to “count the cost™ and follow her advice. Orpha saw the external and tem- | poral things that her mother-in-law | pointed out, kissed her and returned to her own people. Ruth, controlled Ly her spiritual attitude, ‘determined | to continue with her mother-in-law. Her choice revealed the evidence of her genuine conversion. It was marked by conviction, confession and concentration. It was a tribute to character of Naomi and is the beautiful confession of human ¢ in all the literature of the world. Ruth’s voluntary choice “,nxl primarily due to her love for Naom she sacrificed her faith, family, friends and fireside when she said to ner mother-in-law ntreat me not to leave thee, or to return from fol- | lowing after thee: for whither thou goest, T will go: and where thou lodgest, T will 1odge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God. Where thou diest, I will die, and there will T be buried: the Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me. "he frrevocable choice of Naomi's country, condition of poverty and religion brought to Ruth all the joys of life. No one ever sacrifices for the glory of God without receiving his reward. Ruth put her profession to the test of ser yee. Her willingness to work and by her efforts s her in-law put her path- way of advancement. The arrival of the two widows in Bethlehem filled the community with excitement. To the querles of all the broken-hearted widow acknowledged that she was Nzomi, but requested that in view of her great sorrows and sufferings, which she attributed to the Lord, they call her Mara (“bitter”). Shej was despondent like many great souls | have bLeen when they misread the meaning of the providence that filled them with sorrow. Naoml had not been a traltor to Jehovah. She had kept the faith in Moab and the con- version of Ruth was an evidence of her success as a missionary. They returned at a providential season. They reached Bethlehem at the barley harvest, which usually comes at April. when Palestine, cov- ered with follage, must have appeared to Ruth to be a garden of the Lord. She realized that the burden of sup- porting Naoml depended upon her in- dustry. She went forth to-glean, to obtain for both their daily bread. God’'s law provides for the poor and the stranger. If followed today It would solve many modern social problems. If observed by any nation it will never become ‘a paradise for the rich and a purgatory for the poor.” Guided by the providential leadings of the Lord, Ruth came to a field of Boaz who was a near and wealthy kinsman of her late husband.
