Let us continue our study of the book of Ruth chapter two. Here in verse one we are introduced to Boaz, a man of great wealth, of the family of Elimelech - Naomi's husband. A kinsman to Naomi. We will discuss how he is her kinsman-redeemer later in this chapter.
A prime example of a changed heart resulting in changed circumstances; do you know who Boaz' mother was? Yes, Mathew 1:5 shows us that Boaz was the son of Rahab the harlot who was saved when she helped the spies at Jericho. Rahab was obedient to God's word and was blessed to be in the lineage of Jesus.
This is just an introduction to Boaz, we will learn more about him as we go on.
