Establish the need: To the untrained eye one can think a small book like Ruth that read like personal romance has nothing to do with the Messiah; but is this the case?
Purpose: We will consider three points of how the book of Ruth has Messianic trajectories.
-
- It might have seemed that God had forgotten about His Messianic promises during the book of Ruth
- The genealogy in Ruth 4 continues the Messianic hope
- God works through unlikely situations
