The book of Ruth illustrates how God can take those who seem empty, when it seems all is lost, and use them to glorify God. Two take-aways from Ruth: Integrity and Compassion. "First-fruits put first things first." Webber shows how Boaz is a type of Christ, showing compassion, determination, integrity, and being a redeemer. And, how Ruth is a type of the church: obedient, faithful, loyal, of a good reputation, and redeemed.
