Ruth 4:1–10: What Redemption Means
Boaz settles the matter at the city gate, buying the land and taking Ruth so a dead man's name is not cut off. Redemption here is personal, costly, public, and aimed at restoring a family's place among God's people.
Caleb's Daughter Achsah and the Springs of Water
