The Book of Ruth, Part 10: Uncovering Boaz's Feet
In today's episode we get a bit of a jolt to the "love story" of Ruth and Boaz, and Naomi suggests something that might startle us. Ruth's actions might be viewed with some skepticism too.
WARNING: While I think most will be fine listening to this episode with their children, you may wish to preview this one first.

Ruth 3:1 (NET) At that time, Naomi, her mother-in-law, said to her, “My daughter, I must find a home for you so you will be secure. 2 Now Boaz, with whose female servants you worked, is our close relative. Look, tonight he is winnowing barley at the threshing floor. 3 So bathe yourself, rub on some perfumed oil, and get dressed up. Then go down to the threshing floor. But donʼt let the man know youʼre there until he finishes his meal. 4 When he gets ready to go to sleep, take careful notice of the place where he lies down. Then go, uncover his legs, and lie down beside him. He will tell you what you should do.” 5 Ruth replied to Naomi, “I will do everything you have told me to do.”
