Through Ruth’s faith and obedience, God weaves her into the lineage of King David and, ultimately, Jesus Christ. The book highlights God’s providence, loyal love, and the inclusion of outsiders in His redemptive plan. --- ## 🧭 Theme Verse > --- ## 🧭 Major Themes - --- ## 📅 Outline of Book | Section Title | Chapters | |:--------------|:---------| | (First Big Section) | Chapters #–# | | (Second Big Section) | Chapters #–# | | (Third Big Section) | Chapters #–# | --- ## ✍️ Chapter-by-Chapter Notes - [[Ruth 1]] - [[Ruth 2]] - [[Ruth 3]] - [[Ruth 4]] --- ## 🙏 Devotional Reflections - --- ## 📚 Further Study / Interesting Insights ### Cinderella Story It’s about a family going through the highs and lows of their life.

Where the book of Judges overlaps with the church. - 1st Generation- Took the chance. Bet the Farm, went all out, marched the fields, carved out the right way. - 2nd Generation- Heard what the first generation did. Lived on their faith and had SOME faith because they saw first hand what the first generation did. - 3rd Generation- Struggle because they do not risk. ### Resolution - All problems of chapter one are resolved. - Naomi who has lost so much, holds her grandson in her arms… her bereavement is reversed, death has been replaced by life, her loss comforted, her life “redeemed.” - “Rest” has been achieved for both Naomi and Ruth, but as the town of Bethlehem will learn much later, for all of Israel as well. - And in little Obed the Lord’s enormous purposes are accomplished through the _**lives of ordinary people living with extraordinary integrity**_.
