Theme Of Loyalty In The Book Of Ruth

Ruth was a heroism and a brave woman who was the greatgrand mother of King David, an ancestor of Jesus. She was so loyal that, when her husband died, she remained with mother-in-law (Naomi), even though she didn’t have to.

I really liked how kindhearted Manju was and how she took the time to teach the slum children, even though she really didn’t have to. She was also very kind to Meena and tried to be a very good friend to her because of her situation with her family. I was upset when Meena decided to take her own life because I feel someone could have helped her; but at the same time, if I was in her place, I probably would have done the same thing.

So in the end of it all when your days come to an end you will be allowed into the kingdom of God. Another point in David’s culture that is also similar to Rama’s is the kind of marital statues a man could have. “…Although women could not have more than one husband simultaneously (polyandry), men might have more than one wife at the same time”.

It was at this point when she had started seeing Jody, for whom she had felt love. However, as the years went by, Jody had repeatedly suppressed Janie’s true self, although unknowingly. Due to this, Janie had bottled up her feelings of resentment despite Jody even lashing out at her on several occasions.
