Advanced Readings in Biblical Narrative: The Book of Ruth
Thursdays, June 3 - July 1 (5 wks)
7:00 - 9:30 PM
Moshe Adler
The Book of Ruth is a tale of familial loyalty, nobility of character, and the adoption of an outsider into the family of Abraham. In a larger biblical context, it is also the story of how acts of selfless kindness pay off an ancient "karmic debt" in the lineage of David, thus clearing the way for his divine election as king of Israel.
