Rute 3:16 Meaning and Commentary

Ruth 3:16

And when she came to her mother in law
To Naomi, in Bethlehem:

she said, who art thou, my daughter?
it being near dusk, she could not discern her, or perhaps she put the question before she opened the door and saw her; though one would think, if Ruth had called to her, she would have known her voice: rather therefore the particle may be rendered, "what" or "how" F3, instead of "who"; and the sense be, what had befallen her? what success had she had? how had things gone with her? was she married or not? or rather, had she got a promise of it? or was it likely that she should be married? with which the answer agrees:

and she told her all that the man had done to her;
what kindness he had shown her, what promises he had made to her, that either he, or a nearer kinsman, would marry her, and redeem her husband's estate.

Rute 3:16 In-Context

14 Ela ficou deitada aos pés dele até de manhã, mas levantou-se antes de clarear para não ser reconhecida.Boaz pensou: “Ninguém deve saber que esta mulher esteve na eira”.
15 Por isso disse: “Traga-me o manto que você está usando e segure-o”. Ela o segurou, e o homem despejou nele seis medidas de cevada e o pôs sobre os ombros dela. Depois ele voltou para a cidade.
16 Quando Rute voltou à sua sogra, esta lhe perguntou: “Como foi, minha filha?”Rute lhe contou tudo o que Boaz lhe tinha feito,
17 e acrescentou: “Ele me deu estas seis medidas de cevada, dizendo: ‘Não volte para a sua sogra de mãos vazias’.”
18 Disse então Noemi: “Agora espere, minha filha, até saber o que acontecerá. Sem dúvida aquele homem não descansará enquanto não resolver esta questão hoje mesmo”.
