Excerpt from The Preacher's Commentary on the Book of Ruth: With Critical and Exegetical Notes

Simple, sometimes sorrowful, always touching. We have known strong and rough voices break down with emotion in reading aloud some of the passages Occasionally becomes poetic in form as well as in substance. (see ch. I. 16, 17; iv. 11, 12, and 14, 15, in Wordsworth.) A most artless and inexpressibly charming picture of nature (humboldt). The loveliest thing in the shape of an epic or idyl which has come to us (goethe).

Scope and object. To teach the dignity and even sacredness of much we call secular and commonplace in life.
