The book of Ruth is a wonderful short story.

Many people throughout the ages have been touched by the sweetness and kindness so evident in the episode. People have been drawn to the book because it is a most beautiful love story. The book of Ruth has even been called an ancient 'biblical Cinderella story' in which Ruth finds her true prince by the close of the tale. It is thus viewed almost as a rags-to-riches fairy tale.

Commendations
'This is an ideal companion for anyone wishing to work through the book of Ruth. The leading motifs are well captured, and there are a host of very suitable illustrations from history. It is a simple and lucid presentation which will satisfy a wide readership. Dr Currid is loath to push too hard the issue of Boaz as a type of Christ, but there is much of Christ in this commentary. Ruth is the Cinderella story that happened, and Dr Currid is a master storyteller who is also an historian and a theologian. This will charm, instruct, and inspire all who use it to help them better grasp the Word of God.'
–Peter Barnes
