In Ruth 4, the story of Ruth and Boaz reaches its redemptive climax. After Ruth boldly follows Naomi’s instructions to seek Boaz as a redeemer, Boaz honors her request but must first offer the right to a closer relative. When that man declines, Boaz redeems Ruth and Elimelech’s land, marrying Ruth to preserve the family line. Their union results in the birth of Obed, grandfather of King David—placing Ruth in the lineage of Jesus. This chapter reveals God’s quiet yet powerful providence, His care for the marginalized, and His ability to weave redemption through faithful, ordinary lives. It’s a reminder that our stories are part of His greater, eternal one.
