Ruth 1:11-13

1:11

sons <01121> [are there.]

This alludes to the custom that when a married brother died, without leaving posterity, his brother should take his widow; and the children of such marriages were accounted those of the deceased brother. This address of Naomi to her daughter-in-law is exceedingly tender, persuasive, and affecting.

<0582> [that they.]

1:12

old <02204> [too old.]

married <0376> [I should have. or, I were with.]

1:13

wait <07663> [tarry. Heb. hope. it grieveth me much. Heb. I have much bitterness. the hand.]
