Bible Note: Doubtless David commissioned the writing of this book. No doubt he knew this story of Jesse's grandparent's quite well. The story of the kinsman redeemer is also a prophetic type of the Lord Jesus Christ. (See the prophetic statement in Ruth 4:12.) Matthew Henry observes regarding this verse through verse 9: Thus must we by faith apply ourselves to Jesus Christ as our next kinsman, that is able to redeem us, come under his wings, as we are invited (Mat_23:37), and beg of him to spread his skirt over us. "Lord Jesus, take me into thy covenant and under thy care. I am oppressed, undertake for me." |
