  • Summary

  • The Book of Ruth is one of the best known and best loved of all the Biblical works of the Jewish Bible. This series explores the hidden levels of depth and meaning. The first chapter links back to previous episodes of Torah and the Book of Judges, arching all the way back to the traumatic departure of Abraham's nephew Lot to the anti-Abraham town of Sodom. Beneath the surface lurks a deep problem and paradox at the heart of lovingkindness. A problem that threatens to undermine the entire Abrahamic project, and the possibility of a relationship with God Himself. Ruth enters to address the crisis and to resolve the pathway to a unified harmonious world. #bookofruth #torah #bible #jewishphilosophy
