Ruth 2 · Grade 3

Ruth Finds Favor

Name Date

Read the Story

Ruth went to glean grain behind the reapers. She happened to come to the part of the field that belonged to Boaz. He was a mighty man of wealth from Elimelech's family.

Boaz greeted his reapers, May Yahweh be with you. They answered, May Yahweh bless you. Boaz asked about Ruth, then told her to stay close to his maidens and drink from their water jars. Ruth bowed and asked why he was kind to a foreigner. Boaz said he had heard all she had done for Naomi. He said Ruth had come to take refuge under Yahweh's wings.

At meal time, Boaz gave her bread and parched grain. He told his young men to pull out some grain for her. She gleaned about an ephah of barley. Naomi said, May he be blessed by Yahweh, who has not abandoned His kindness. Boaz is one of our near kinsmen.

Memory Verse

May Yahweh repay your work, and a full reward be given to you from Yahweh, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”
