In this book Barber heralds Grace - its was grace that led Elimelech to Moab, it brought Naomi back to Bethlehem; it guides Ruth to Boaz's field and then directs Boaz to Ruth. From the gracious acts of God in Ruth's time the author draws lessons for the 21st century believer.
He fathoms the importance of decision making, the purpose of suffering and the power of love.
But the author does more than expound truths, along with his other commentaries available from ICM Books, Barber helps the reader understand the Bible text by explaining customs and word meanings.
This is a book for the Bible student, the one who is seeking to discover more about the grace which is contained in Ruth.
