This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Rth_2:8 Then said Boaz unto Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from hence, but abide here fast by my maidens:
Ver. 8. Hearest thou not, my daughter?] q.d., Hear and heed what I say to thee; be advised by me. Audite senem iuvenes, &c. Neither showed Boaz his love "in word or in tongue only" - such love is good cheap - "but in deed and in truth." {1Jn_3:18}
Abide here fast by my maidens.] Who were there, either as reapers, binders, or takers: or if they gleaned, it was for themselves, because they were poor and indigent.
