Borders and Belonging: The Book of Ruth by Glenn Jordan, Pádraig Ó Tuama

5.0

Outstanding, outstanding book. The authors take a deep look at the lessons of Ruth and how this book might speak to modern times. I appreciate the balance between thoughtful historical and theological scholarship alongside deep introspection. The book makes the case that Ruth is radical in her challenge to formalized law and her decision to love and love again, even as a Moabite Other.
