Noteworthy:
Ruth is one of only 2 books of the Bible that were named after women (Esther being the other)
It is the only genealogy we have that connects King David to the tribe of Judah
Significant because the Messiah was to come from the tribe of Judah, and the genealogy of Jesus traces back to King David
God was at work preparing a line through which the Messiah would come
Book of Ruth is considered Historical
Big Idea = Redemption
A Beautiful Love Story between two unlikely people. It has even been called an ancient "Biblical Cinderella Story." Viewed as a rags-to-riches fairy tale.
