Rut 2:15

Listen to Rut 2:15
15 Cuando ella se levantó para espigar, Booz ordenó a sus siervos, diciendo: Dejadla espigar aun entre las gavillas y no la avergoncéis.

Rut 2:15 Meaning and Commentary

Ruth 2:15

And when she was risen up to glean
After she had ate sufficiently, and refreshed herself, she rose up from her seat to go into the field and glean again; which shows her industry:

Boaz commanded his young men;
the reapers, or who gathered the handfuls, and bound them up in sheaves:

saying, let her glean even among the sheaves;
this she had requested of the reapers when she first came into the field, and it was granted her, ( Ruth 2:7 ) but this, as it was granted by Boaz himself, so was still a greater favour; and there is some difference in the expression, for it may be rendered here, "among those sheaves" F8, pointing to a particular spot where might be the best ears of corn, and where more of them had fallen:

and reproach her not;
as not with her being a poor woman, a widow, a Moabitish woman, so neither with being a thief, or taking such corn she should not, or gleaning where she ought not.

Rut 2:15 In-Context

13 Entonces ella dijo: Señor mío, he hallado gracia ante tus ojos, porque me has consolado y en verdad has hablado con bondad a tu sierva, aunque yo no soy como una de tus siervas.
14 Y a la hora de comer Booz le dijo: Ven acá para que comas del pan y mojes tu pedazo de pan en el vinagre. Así pues ella se sentó junto a los segadores; y él le sirvió grano tostado, y ella comió hasta saciarse y aún le sobró.
15 Cuando ella se levantó para espigar, Booz ordenó a sus siervos, diciendo: Dejadla espigar aun entre las gavillas y no la avergoncéis.
16 También sacaréis a propósito para ella un poco de grano de los manojos y lo dejaréis para que ella lo recoja, y no la reprendáis.
17 Y ella espigó en el campo hasta el anochecer, y desgranó lo que había espigado y fue como un efa de cebada.
