This in-depth inductive study of the Old Testament Book of Ruth examines specific events centering on a group of people who lived in the time of the judges.  Who were the people involved and why was this book included in the Hebrew Scriptures?  What do you learn about Israel and the time between the occupation of the Promised Land and the Israeli monarchy?  Most importantly, this four lesson study will seek to understand the nature and character of God, so that the student can grow in their faith and see the eternal principles of God’s word that can be applied even today.
