SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:18
Y viendo ella que estaba tan resuelta a ir con ella, dejó de hablarle.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 18. When she saw that she was steadfastly minded to go with her , etc.] That she was strong in her resolutions, and steadfast in her determinations not to go back to her own country, but to go forward with her; and nothing could move her from the firm purpose of her mind, which was what Naomi wanted to make trial of: then she left speaking unto her : that is, upon that head of returning home; otherwise, no doubt, upon this a close, comfortable, religious conversation ensued, which made their journey the more pleasant and agreeable.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 15-18 - See Ruth's resolution, and her good affection to Naomi. Orpah was lot to part from her; yet she did not love her well enough to leave Moa for her sake. Thus, many have a value and affection for Christ, ye come short of salvation by him, because they will not forsake othe things for him. They love him, yet leave him, because they do not love him enough, but love other things better. Ruth is an example of the grace of God, inclining the soul to choose the better part. Naomi coul desire no more than the solemn declaration Ruth made. See the power of resolution; it silences temptation. Those that go in religious way without a stedfast mind, stand like a door half open, which invites thief; but resolution shuts and bolts the door, resists the devil an forces him to flee.
