Rut 1:7 Meaning and Commentary

Ruth 1:7

Wherefore she went forth out of the place where she was
What part of Moab she had dwelt in, and now removed from, is not said; it is called the country or field of Moab, she returned from; hence some have thought, that she and her husband, and her sons, did not live in any of the cities of Moab, but in a field; either because the Moabites would not suffer them to dwell in their cities, only allowed them to pitch their tents in their fields; or they chose to dwell there, that they might as much as possible avoid conversation with them, and be preserved from their idolatry, and other corruptions:

and her two daughters in law with her;
who, out of respect to her, accompanied her some part of the way, as relations and friends usually did:

and they went on the way to return unto the land of Judah;
they went along with her to the border of the land of Judah, in her return thither; for returning can only be said of her with any propriety, because her two daughters had never been there; that was not the country from whence they came, and therefore could not be said to return thither.

Rut 1:7 In-Context

5 murieron tanto Mahlón como Quelión. Entonces, Noemí quedó sola, sin sus dos hijos y sin su esposo.

6 Noemí y Rut regresan a Judá
Estando en Moab, Noemí se enteró de que el Señor
había bendecido a su pueblo en Judá al volver a darle buenas cosechas. Entonces Noemí y sus nueras se prepararon para salir de Moab y regresar a su tierra natal.

7 Acompañada por sus dos nueras, partió del lugar donde vivía y tomó el camino que las llevaría de regreso a Judá.

8 Sin embargo, ya puestas en camino, Noemí les dijo a sus dos nueras:
—Vuelva cada una a la casa de su madre, y que el Señor
las recompense por la bondad que mostraron a sus esposos y a mí.

9 Que el Señor
las bendiga con la seguridad de un nuevo matrimonio.
Entonces les dio un beso de despedida y todas se echaron a llorar desconsoladas.
