Verses lO-14.-.An inevitable seporo-

These three women had no doubt
1alkeu over n whole matter several
times and had probably agreed that
the course of Naomi was the wisest
under the circumstances. But when

prepared for action. 'Surely we will

Verses 1o-lS.-An honorable choice.
This family from Bethlehem had not
forgotten Jehovah in the and Of
strangers, but worShiped him in their
home. When Orpah and Ruth became
members of the family they rcnounc-
cd the god Of their fathers in favor
OF the God of their husbands. The
rae that Orpah returned to her moth
ers house implied that she again be-
came il worshiper of Chemosh. the rod
OF Moab. Ruth was, however, Of a
different mind. "Entreat me NOT to
leave thee" No argument or Dersna-
sion could influence her decision Sh.
was resolved to accompany Naomi at
amy cost. Her decision was EXPRESSED
in the language of sublime poetry. and
it revealed the splendid nobility of her
character. ''Thy people s. * * nv peo-
pie, and thy God my God" Nothing
shall swerve her until death part thee
and me-" After such Il declaration
there was nothing more to be said.
for it was very evident that Ruth was
">teadfastly minded. to go with her"
The vents that followed after these
two women returned to Bethlehem re-
Veal yet further the nobility of their
spirit. God did not fail them i'm thc
hour of their need. but raised up those
who were genuine friends. so that their
lot WAS once again cast in pleasant
places.
