• The book closes with a short genealogy of ten names ending with David the King. In the opening chapter of the New Testament these ten names have an honored place in the genealogy of the King of kings, but with this difference that the Spirit of God has introduced, in connection with these names, four women—one of them being Ruth the Moabitess. It is significant that with each of these women there is connected a story of failure and shame, only making manifest that “where sin abounded grace did much more abound.” So that historically the Book of Ruth is the record of the grace of God that, thirteen centuries before the King came, was securing the line by which He was to come, and, in so doing, triumphing over all the failure of the people, and magnifying grace, by bringing a Moabitish stranger into the line of the King. (“Ruth 4” by S. Ridout)
