On the surface, the story of Rus is a subtle one. No remarkable acts of heroism and astounding miracles. Just the simple account of a lone Moabite convert struggling to find sustenance during the seasonal wheat harvest. Take a closer look, though, and the picture changes. The magnificent tale of the establishment of the Jewish people's royal lineage unfolds. The self-sacrifice and awe-inspiring kindness that led to it is this book's message.
Renowned talmid chacham Rabbi Yehuda Steinberg takes us deep into the underlying lessons of Megilas Rus. He reveals its central lessons so that we come away not only with a much clearer picture of what things were like over two thousand years ago, but also with the guidance we need to apply them in our own lives.
