SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:16
Así que vino a su suegra, ésta le dijo: ¿Qué pues, hija mía? Y le declaró ella todo lo que con aquel varón le había acontecido.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 16. And when she came to her mother in law , etc.] To Naomi, in Bethlehem: she said, who art thou, my daughter ? it being near dusk, she could not discern her, or perhaps she put the question before she opened the door and saw her; though one would think, if Ruth had called to her, she would have known her voice: rather therefore the particle may be rendered, “what” or “how” f67 , instead of “who”; and the sense be, what had befallen her? what success had she had? how had things gone with her? was she married or not? or rather, had she got a promise of it? or was it likely that she should be married? with which the answer agrees: and she told her all that the man had done to her ; what kindness he had shown her, what promises he had made to her, that either he, or a nearer kinsman, would marry her, and redeem her husband’s estate.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-18 - Ruth had done all that was fit for her to do, she must patiently wai the event. Boaz, having undertaken this matter, would be sure to manag it well. Much more reason have true believers to cast their care of God, because he has promised to care for them. Our strength is to sin still, Isa 30:7. This narrative may encourage us to lay ourselves by faith at the feet of Christ: He is our near Kinsman; having taken ou nature upon him. He has the right to redeem. Let us seek to receiv from him his directions: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? Ac 9:6. He will never blame us as doing this unseasonably. And let us earnestl desire and seek the same rest for our children and friends, that it ma be well with them also __________________________________________________________________
