Ruth Gleans in the Fields of Boazby emmanuel_higgins

Ruth 3:6

And she went down unto the floor, and did according to all that her mother in law bade her.

Ruth 3:6 belongs to the beautiful, brief pastoral tale of Ruth from the time of the judges. It records Ruth doing all her mother-in-law directed by seeking the help of Boaz as the family's nearest kinsman, whose duty was to preserve the deceased family's name and inheritance. The story closes by bringing out the ancestry of the Lord Jesus, into which Ruth the Moabite woman is brought.
