Land and Legacy: Redemption in Megillat Ruth
Release Date:
Land and Legacy: Redemption in Megillat Ruth, by Rav Yitzchak Etshalom The notion of "Geula" is prominent throughout Megillat Ruth, reaching a crescendo in the final Rav Yitzchak Etshalom chapter. The redemption is not just about land, but about a person's memory - as exemplified by the curious structural relationship between the 7 uses of "שם" before chapter 4 and the corresponding 7 mentions in chapter 4.
