NETBible

So Ruth 1  went and gathered grain in the fields 2  behind the harvesters. Now she just happened to end up 3  in the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who was from the clan of Elimelech.

NET Notes

tn Heb “she”; the referent (Ruth) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Heb “and she went and entered [a field] and gleaned in the field behind the harvesters.” Cf. KJV, NASB, NRSV “the reapers”; TEV “the workers.”

sn The text is written from Ruth’s limited perspective. As far as she was concerned, she randomly picked a spot in the field. But God was providentially at work and led her to the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who, as a near relative of Elimelech, was a potential benefactor.
