Ruth The Moabitess (1849)

Ruth The Moabitess is a book written by Hugh Anderson in 1849. The book is a retelling of the biblical story of Ruth, a Moabite woman who becomes the ancestor of King David and Jesus Christ. The story follows Ruth as she leaves her homeland of Moab with her mother-in-law Naomi after the death of her husband. Ruth's loyalty and devotion to Naomi lead her to Bethlehem, where she meets and marries Boaz, a wealthy landowner. The book explores themes of loyalty, faith, and redemption, as well as the cultural differences between the Israelites and the Moabites. Anderson's retelling of Ruth's story is a faithful and engaging adaptation of the biblical narrative, offering readers a deeper understanding of one of the most beloved stories in the Old Testament.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
