Ruth and Naomi return to Bethlehem a tale of faith
A sermon on Ruth and Naomi from Ruth ii highlights Ruth clinging to Naomi and the God of Israel, contrasting their years in Moab with their return to Bethlehem. It links Ruth’s fidelity to prophecy, notes Elimelech’s name meaning and Bethlehem as house of bread, and frames Ruth’s marriage to Boaz and the lineage to David as providential. The piece discusses God’s guidance through famine, exile, and redemption, urging steadfast faith.
