The story of Ruth ep. 3 - Happily ever after

Ruth and Boaz's marriage marks a significant turning point in the biblical narrative, blending faith, loyalty, and divine providence. Ruth, a Moabite widow who had shown steadfast devotion to her mother-in-law Naomi, is guided by faith to a new life in Israel. Boaz, a man of integrity and compassion, takes Ruth as his wife, fulfilling the role of kinsman-redeemer. Their union is blessed by God with the birth of a son, Obed. Obed becomes the grandfather of King David, one of Israel's greatest leaders, and through this lineage, the ultimate Redeemer of humanity, Jesus Christ, is born.
This remarkable story highlights God's ability to use unexpected people and circumstances to fulfill His divine plan. Ruth, a foreigner from Moab, rises from humble beginnings to become an essential part of the genealogy of Jesus, the Savior of the world. As reflected in the lyrics of our song inspired by Ruth's life, who could have imagined that from a simple Moabite girl would come the lineage of the Messiah? Ruth's story serves as a reminder of how God's grace and purpose extend far beyond human expectation.
