Ruth 3



What is noted in this chapter is Naomi's faith that Boaz would do what is right when it comes to dealing with Ruth. It is also a matter of faith that Ruth follows the instructions of her mother-in-law without question. Both demonstrate a faith that the other will do right. It is great when we have people in our lives whom we can trust that much.
Finally, as I have noted before, there is what Dr. Lockyer says in this moment that "goodness alone passed between them,"  in regards to Boaz and Ruth. He bears this out by Boaz telling Ruth to fear not and calling her my daughter. These are things that wouldn't be said if something torrid took place.
