The book of Ruth takes place during one of the darkest periods of time in Israel’s history, marked by moral chaos and rampant idolatry. Following the story of a foreign woman who adopts the life of her mother-in-law, Ruth is a story of how God can create beauty despite chaos, as well as the future hope that is to come for all. Ruth was a foreigner in a strange land. In a “lawless” time, she was been an easy mark to mistreat, but Boaz exemplifies the generosity that comes from the goodness of God.
