note
Amongst other thinges that happened to the people of Israel, in the
time of the Iudges, this historie of Ruth, to witt, her coming from
Moab, her conuersion to true Religion, godlie conuersation, and mariage with
Booz of the tribe of Iuda, is recorded, as a more principal matter. note For that not
onlie king Dauid, but consequently also our Saviovr, the Redemer of
mankind descended from her. VVherby was foresignified, that as saluation
thus proceded from the Gentiles together with the Iewes: so the Gentiles are
made partakers of the same grace. More clerly prophecied, as S. Hierom noteth,
by Isai (cap. 16.) saying: Send forth รด Lord the lambe, the Ruler of
the earth, from the Rocke of the desert to the mount of the
daughter of Sion. That is, from Ruth the gentile to Hierusalem, or rather
to the Church. This mariage of Ruth came to passe about the time of Abesan
Iudge. The booke was written, as is most probable, by Samuel: and is diuided
into foure chapters; whose contentes folow in their places.
