Escape From El-Ashaq
Number of Words: 880 / Number of Pages: 4
... as well as the only other book, aside from Esther, with a titular female character . The rare similarities encourage the comparison to Job, a non-Israelite, finding favor in God, and the parallel with Esther marrying a Gentile husband, suggesting Gentiles were to only be blessed through Abraham’s seed. However, the extent to which God actually provided for Ruth is questionable; the text gives nothing of God’s thoughts on Ruth. Ruth’s desire to worship Naomi’s god seems to only affirm her love for Naomi, not God (Ruth 1.16). Nor is Ruth’s marriage to Boaz necessarily a blessing. Ruth ente ...

... creatures, and bravery certainly does not come to mind when thinking about Bilbo Baggins sitting in his nice warm little Hobbit hole at the beginning of the story. The first sign of bravery is when the great spider tries to tie him up and Bilbo fights him off with his little sword:
