Ruth 2:16

And let fall some of the handfuls on purpose for her
That is, when they had reaped an handful, instead of laying it in its proper order, to be taken up by those that gathered after them, or by themselves, in order to be bound up in sheaves, scatter it about, or let it fall where they reaped it:

and leave them, that she may glean them, and rebuke her not
for taking them, as if she did a wrong thing.
