The book of Ruth is a tale of charm and delight. Goethe called it 'the loveliest complete work on a small scale, handed down to us as an ethical treatise and an idyll.' Another writes, 'No poet in the world has written a more beautiful short story.' Theologically the story of Ruth is a story about God's providence. This David Atkinson demonstrates clearly in his passage-by-passage exposition. Back Cover
