Commentary on Ruth 2:19
Naomi responds with questions: 'Where hast thou gleaned to day? and where wroughtest thou? blessed be he that did take knowledge of thee'. The large amount of grain prompts Naomi's inquiry—this exceeds normal gleaning. Her blessing on the unknown benefactor who 'took knowledge of' Ruth shows Naomi recognizing human kindness as God's providence. Ruth then reveals: 'The man's name with whom I wrought to day is Boaz'. This revelation sets the stage for Naomi's recognition of God's redemptive plan unfolding.
