Ruth 3:10

OLD TESTAMENTNEW TESTAMENT

And he said, Blessed be you of the LORD, my daughter: for you have showed more kindness in the latter end than at the beginning, in that you followed not young men, whether poor or rich.

Verse 9 Read Chapter 3 Verse 11

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849

Thy latter kindness; viz., to thy husband deceased, in seeking to keep up his name and family, by marrying his relation according to the law, and not following after young men: for Booz, it seems, was then in years. (Challoner) Salien supposes about seventy years old. (Haydock) The affection which Ruth had all along displayed towards her husband, deserved applause. (Calmet) Much more did her present endeavours to comply with God's law. (Worthington)
