In this episode, Jonny Ardavanis lays out the framework for understanding the book of Ruth. The book of Ruth is juxtaposed against the backdrop of the time of the Judges, a time of great wickedness for the people of God. Throughout the book of judges there is a reoccurring theme: “there was no King in Israel.”
The anticipation of a coming king functions as one of the main thrusts of the entire Old Testament. In the book of Ruth, we see how God is providentially orchestrating His plan to bring about His king through every day people and amidst pain, suffering and famine.
In order to understand the book of Ruth, we need to understand why it was written. Ruth was written to reveal God’s providential plan in bringing about His redemptive purpose.
