I Comments J&J On S,B,' l ffi| | Creamed Comment* <>n the SunI day Bchool Lennon. Naomi, Woman of Faith. Ruth 1:16-18; 2 20; 4:14-17 for Sunday, July 18. The outstanding character In the imok of Ruth is Naomi hut for some unknown reason the book of the story , of Naomi and her tdo daughtersin l*w Is called Ruth Elimele-ck and bis wlfp Naomi left Bethlehem to live in the country of the Moabites, likely because of financial conditions. never taking Into account that by so doing they were leaving not only God s country but God himself for a land of Idolatry. The two sons married two sisters of the Moabites. In the death of the hus ’ band and the two sons. Naomi seeing the mistake of leaving Bethlehem decides to go home and Is followed iiy Ruth and Orpah, the latter returning to her home, while Ruth goes with Naomi. V 14. ‘'And Ruth said. Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following thee; for whither thou goest. I will go; and where thou lodgest I will lodge; thy people shall he my people and thy God my God Naomi had lived such a godly life that she won Ruth to I herself and to her God. That was a common experience of sorrow so there was a fellowship of suffering and a profound sympathy that gave a good back ground for faith in Ood. So Ruth made the great de-cision-leaving the land of Idols for’ the land in which God Ruled J V 17 “Where thou dlest, I trill Idle, and there I will be hurled; the Lord do so to me. and more also.! if ought Imt death part thee and me" One's test of religion is In such deep consecration that will not allow a shrinking of loyalty to God even If It means death Ruth has' ceased her weeping and now proposes to act Such consecration as was seen in Ruth Is needed in the church today. V 18 "When she raw that she was steadfastly minded to go with her. then she left speaking to her.” i Here Is tbe noble quality of being steadfastly minded especially in decisions which involve acceptance of God and of the fellowship of the people of God. From this point It Is)

Oup JiL No man ia greater than his da eiaioim; for to make dacisiußa one has to put himself into Goa’s will, and so the real man is seen in his decisions Great decisions call for .’reat men. men of intellect, of wls lorn, of love for othere. for the exereiae of all those qualities that make character Decieione are reflations of barat ter of the highest type if they take God iato accuunt Lesson Prayer Lesson prayer We Join the mastea In confessing our waywardneaa >ut rejoice ia the Restorer who orgives our wanderiaga aad takes is back into the family Ot God o that w raping i« turned into Mr -ad defeat ia turned into victory.

Huth that is the prominent character of the l>ook. Great decislone make great inen and women. The world is in need now of great decisions of world leaders, such great de lsions as that of making first God and bis righteousness. V. 20. “And Naomi said unto her daughter-in law. Blessed lie he of the Ixird. who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the ' dead The man Is near of kin to us. ' one of our next kinsman." "Ruth would not be a dependent; she did not despise hard work and so she found a place in the field of Boas I gathering what tbe reapers had t failed to get Boas was attracted to this maiden and favored her by asking his servants to leave wheat for her to garner. In giving the report to Naomi, there came forth words of praise to God for the klndt ness of Boas. Vll "And the women raid to Naomi. Blessed be the I .ord. which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous In Israel.” Here was a romance; Boas, much'the older fell In love with Ruth, He proceeded legally as to Naomis property which he purchased; by this process he could marry Ruth. There was great rejoicing at tbe birth of a son. the neighboring women saying. "Blessed be the Lord." Naomi was the nurse of the child whom she tenderly cared for as be was in; the succession of tbe Messiabshlp. i V. 15. "And he shall be to thee al restorer of thy life, and a nous isher of thine old age; for thy daugbter-In-law, which loveth thee, which is better to thee than seven sons, hath la»rn him " The suggestion of redemption is seen in the testimony iof Naomi's l>eing restored; here i too Is exemplified love, since Ruth's love was perfect, equal to the love of seven (a perfect number) sons. Vl6 “And Naomi took the child. 1 and laid ft in her oosom. and be-1 came nurse to it." The child became another link to bind the hearts of Ruth and Naomi. No valuation can he put on a little child. V 17 “And the women her neighbors gave It a name, saying, there is a son born to Naotni. and they called hta name Ohed; he is the father of Jesse, the father of David.” Here is a faith triumphant. These women believed that God would honor tbe lineage of stnh devoted people as Naomi and Ruth
