In this podcast we look at how Naomi returns to Israel bitter and empty but Ruth chooses to cast her lot with Naomi, her people, and her God. Ruth chooses to reject her gods and follow the God of Israel.
We begin to see how various people in this book display the same hesed that God displays to His people. (Hesed, sometimes spelled chesed, means kindness or love between people, of piety of people towards God as well as of love or mercy of God towards humanity. It is frequently used in Psalms in this sense, where it is often translated "lovingkindness") In this chapter Ruth shows her hesed to Naomi by her words and deeds.
We learn how Father wants us to display His hesed to all people in our actions and deeds.
These non-denominational Bible studies are led by Dr. Val and recorded live. Some 20-25 men meet weekly at 6:30 AM for an hour. They study and discuss a passage from Scripture. Questions are encouraged and often lead to interesting rabbit trails that help us discover and process additional Biblical truths.
