Ruth knew how to find a good man, and she did so with dignity. Modern women have a lot to learn from this strong, enterprising widow. I suppose it all stemmed from her unshakeable priorities: God, family, love, nation, and manners. Every church should have official matchmakers. Nothing pains a woman more than being alone in a world designed for couples. Some people simply rhyme together. Make it your mission to find people who rhyme together and make sure they meet. ( )

The book of Ruth can reveal how a good woman can find a good man. Husbandry is the careful management of resources. Do men still exist who realize that? How a man treats his wife matters to Yahweh. (1Pe 3:7)
The emotions of grief are ageless. Widows often feel they have lost their purpose in life. The worst part of a widow's day is when her comforters leave. Every part of her daily routine has a kink in it, especially when it's time to go to sleep. Going to bed without hearing someone say, goodnight, feels like leaving the period off the end of a sentence. Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman's guide to husband material, pg 18
Regarding the Bible codes: Ge 38 tells the story of Judah and Tamar. Tamar gave birth to Perez and Zerach. As the book of Ruth points out, Perez started a lineage that led to Boaz. Does Ge 38 connect to the book of Ruth, in other ways? As expected, the names Boaz, Ruth (beginning at Ge 38:11), Obed (beginning at 38:20), Jesse, and David (beginning at Ge 38:28), are spelled out with identical numeric skips (minus 49) . . . and, they appear in chronological order! Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman's guide to husband material, pg 19
To be fair, the pleasure of home and memories had been ripped from Naomi. Not all at once. There is a problem with widowhood: the survivor has no one to remember with. Their co-rememberer can no longer remind them of what they shared. Our dead take our memories with them. Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman's guide to husband material, pg 21
Naomi seems to think “rest” and “husbands” can be found in Moab. “Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, as at the time of Massah in the desert, when your ancestors challenged me, put me to the test, and saw what I could do! For forty years that generation sickened me, and I said, ‘Always fickle hearts; they cannot grasp my ways.' Then in my anger I swore they would never enter my place of rest.” –Ps 95:8-11 Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman's guide to husband material, pg 23
Unlike everyone else in Israel, she and her descendants cannot become citizens of Israel for 10 generations. (De 23:3-7) What could be worse than a Moabite convert? A widowed Moabite convert! Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman's guide to husband material, pg 27
Every storm ends. The skies are usually clearer; the soil is usually richer; that combination will help you to be more receptive to community love. Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman's guide to husband material, pg 27
Fresh activity is the best way to conquer depression. Ruth, not the type to linger in grief, took the initiative to contribute to her very-small household. Ruth was anxious to know and be known by her new community. Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman's guide to husband material, pg 41
