Boaz: Ruth's Bridegroom, Redeemer, and Lord of the Harvest

by Andy McIlree

Join Bible teacher Andy McIlree in this heart-warming study and commentary as, chapter by chapter, he explores the depths of this wonderful Old Testament book of Ruth, and in particular how Boaz is a picture of the Lord Jesus as our Kinsman-redeemer, Bridegroom and the Lord of the Harvest."The events of the book of Ruth are like a jewelled cameo woven into the fabric of Israel’s chequered background. The account of Ruth’s arrival on the pages of God’s Word is an interweaving of His grace, His call and His purpose. So, during Israel’s dull days, she is like a colourful butterfly emerging from a very drab chrysalis. There is no shallow end to the story of Ruth, as depths of despair at the beginning lead on to deepening delight, which causes us to exclaim, “Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!”

[Jonathan Schuh · Rating 5 out of 5]

Starts out a little slow but the Author paints such a beautiful picture of who Christ is to us snd also how men ought to treat women. Every young man should read this and gain wisdom of how to be for the young woman in his life.

There are relatively few books on the book of Ruth and even fewer on Boaz! And this book deserves to be on everyone's reading list because it is a brilliant study of the man, and how he is a wonderful picture of Jesus as our Redeemer, Bridegroom and Lord of the Harvest. You will really feel like you have come to know Boaz, Ruth and Naomi by the end of this book, as well as know Jesus better. You can't say more about a book than that!
