Ruth - The JPS Bible Commentary
By Uriel Simon8.25"x10.25" (216 Pages)Publisher: Jewish Publication Society, 2011
Part of the "JPS Torah/Tanach with Commentary " series.
The moving story of Ruth, with its themes of loyalty, lovingkindness (hesed), and redemption, is one of the great narratives of the Bible.
The authors provide a critical, line-by-line commentary of the biblical text, presented in its original Hebrew, complete with vocalization and cantillation marks, as well as the 1985 JPS English translation. The extensive introduction places the book within its historical, literary, and critical context, discusses contemporary interpretations of the story of Ruth, and examines its major motifs and themes, among them: family, marriage and levirate marriage in biblical and ancient Israel, redemption and inheritance, hesed, and the book s connection with the Jewish holiday of Shavuot
Based on the same format & design as the JPS Torah Commentary series, this work provides a critical line-by-line commentary of the biblical text, presented in its original Hebrew, complete with vocalization and cantillation marks, as well as the 1985 JPS English translation. A scholarly intro and extensive critical notes are also included.
