Rute 4:4 Meaning and Commentary

Ruth 4:4

And I thought to advertise thee
To give him notice of it; or "I said" F7; he said in his heart and mind, purposing to do it; or he said it to Ruth, promising her that he would do it:

saying, buy it before the inhabitants, and before the elders of my
people;
or before those that sat there, even the elders, as witnesses of the purchase:

if thou wilt redeem it, redeem it:
for it was redeemable by a near kinsman according to the law, even when said to another, in ( Leviticus 25:25 ) ,

but if thou wilt not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know;
what to do in this affair, whether to redeem it or not:

for there is none to redeem it besides thee, and I am after thee;
he was the first, and Boaz was the next near kinsman, to whom the right of redemption belonged:

and he said, I will redeem it:
he chose to make the purchase, he liked the land, which he probably full well knew, and it might lie near his own, and make a good addition to it; and as the widow was determined, and under a necessity to sell, he might expect to have it at a cheap rate; all which might induce him at once to agree to be the purchaser.

Rute 4:4 In-Context

2 Então Boaz tomou dez homens dentre os anciãos da cidade, e lhes disse: Sentai-vos aqui. E eles se sentaram.
3 Disse Boaz ao remidor: Noêmi, que voltou da terra dos moabitas, vendeu a parte da terra que pertencia a Elimeleque; nosso irmão.
4 Resolvi informar-te disto, e dizer-te: Compra-a na presença dos que estão sentados aqui, na presença dos anciãos do meu povo; se hás de redimi-la, redime-a, e se não, declara-mo, para que o saiba, pois outro não há, senão tu, que a redima, e eu depois de ti. Então disse ele: Eu a redimirei.
5 Disse, porém, Boaz: No dia em que comprares o campo da mão de Noêmi, também tomarás a Rute, a moabita, que foi mulher do falecido, para suscitar o nome dele na sua herança.
6 Então disse o remidor: Não poderei redimi-lo para mim, para que não prejudique a minha própria herança; toma para ti o meu direito de remissão, porque eu não o posso fazer.
