NAOMI
(The Woman of Faith and Courage)
Sunday, July 14—-Book of Ruth
Golden Text
A woman that feareth the Lord,
she shall be praised. (Prov. 31:30b)
Judged merely as literature, the
Book .oif Ruth is recognized by lit
erary critics as one of the most ex
quisite gems, whether ancient and
modern, known to man. It is a pas
torale of classic, faultless beauty.
But it is more than all this. A
well-known commentator has shown
that the little book of four chapters
may be taken in type as a foreview
of the church, symbolized in Ruth,
the Gentile bride of Christ, who is,
symbolized by Boaz the Bethlehem-
ite—able to redeem.
Every one ought to read the book
through at a sitting. It is less than
■four pages of the Bible-, and can be
read in little more than a quarter of
an hour. The one will have the
whole remantic story, the picture in»
decreases. Then come true romance,
pure and unselfish love, prosperity,
happiness for both women better
than either dared hope for in this
life, and a glorious climax that lifts
us up into the heavenlies.
Naomi with her husband and two
sons were Israelites who left their
homeland, Bethlehem-Judah because
of famine and went to live in a
heathen land, Moab. ‘The young men
married Moabite wives, Orpah and
Ruth. Ten years passed. Naomi’s
husband djed isoon after the move;
now both the sons die; and the be
reaved widow and mother is left
with her two daughters-in-law.
Hearing that her own country had
plenty of food again she started
back, telling the young women to
remain where they were. Orpah
kissed her farewell; “but Ruth
clave unto her.”
Against Naomi's remonstrance
came the words that have often been
quoted through the centuries and
millenniums since they were spoken
“Intreat me not to leave thee, or
to return -from following after thee:
for whither thou goest, I will go;
and where thou lodgest, I wi]l lodge
thy people shall be my people, and
thy God my God.”
The whole beautiful story cannot
be told here, but only some of its
wonders. Naomi and Ruth had little
or nothing when they ‘‘came to
Bethlehem in the beginning of bar
ley harvest.” Ruth, as custom per
mitted went out into a field to glean
ears of corn after the reapers. But
she ‘‘happened” to find a field be
longing to Boaz, a wealthy relative
of Naomi’s husband. The story of
Naomi and Ruth and their return
from Moab had become known, and
Boaz recognized the unusual char
acter of the young woman. He gave
orders to his reapers to jeave plenty
for her; and also that she be pro
tected and treated with the utmost
courtesy.
Finally Boaz fell in love with this
widowed young woman, and was
ready to make her ibis wife unless
another kinsman still nearer, chose
to c]aim his kinsman’s right. That
right was relinguished, and Boaz, in
the way called ’by the law, then re
* Sa aw
deemed oi’ bought in the property
that had belonged to Naomi’s hus
band, who was Ruth's father-in-law
this he must do if he would take the
hand of Ruth in marriage.
There was a pubic ceremony at
tending this “kinsman iredemption”
and the people and the ciders said:
“We are witnesses.”
Boaz married Ruth, and a man-
child was born. 'The women heaped
congratulations and benedictions up
on proud and happy grandmother
Naomi, saying: “Blessed be the
Lord, which hath not left thee this
day without a kinsman, that his
name may be famous in Israel.”
Israej; and she.could say: “Thy God
shall be my God.” ;So she was a
heathen saved by faith—the only
way any one can be saved, whether
Jew or Gentile
She had the sort of love describ
ed by Paul in I Corinthians 13,
which “is . , . vaunteth not itself
. . . believetlj all things, hopeth
ajl things, endureth all things . , «
never failetli,”
Because Ruth had faith and love
she had courage. She dared any dif
ficulty and hardship, trusting God,
in order to'remain by the side of the
one she loved.
She was industrious, a hard worU-
They spoke better than they knew
Ruth’s son was named Obed: “He is
the father of Jesse, the father of
David.” And David became, down
through the centuries, the father of
“David’s greater Son,” the Lord Je-
sus Christ, Son of God, Messiah of
Israel and Saviour of the world.
Some of Ruth’s characteristics?
She was not vacillating, but steady
decided, unchangeable. She “clave"
to Naomi when a]l her own interests
seemed to point elsewhere. “She was
stedfastly minded.”
.She had faith in God. She was a
Moabite, brought up in a heathen re
ligion—and all heathen religions
are false. But, through Na-omi’s
influence, and undoubtedly through
her teaching, Ruth came to see that
there is only one God, the God of.
er.
Bne nved a me of faith, love
truth and purity.
Naomi was a fine, true character,
but she became discouraged, as we
all are likely to be, and she made
the common mistake >of discourage
ment. Whije her afflictions lasted
she was sure that “the band of the
Lord is gone out against me,” “for
the Almighty hath dealt very bit
terly with me,” “the Lord hath testi
fied against me.” And all the time
God was working out His wonderful
purposes of love for Naomi, which
He could not have brought to pass
except by letting the testing and the
affliction come.
These are peculiarly days in which
we may well remember the surprise
God had for afflicted Naomi.
