Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ruth 1:12

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

12, 13. Turn again, my daughters, go your way —That Naomi should dissuade her daughters-in-law so strongly from accompanying her to the land of Israel may appear strange. But it was the wisest and most prudent course for her to adopt: first, because they might be influenced by hopes which could not be realized; second, because they might be led, under temporary excitement, to take a step they might afterwards regret; and, third, because the sincerity and strength of their conversion to the true religion, which she had taught them, would be thoroughly tested. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-13" class="com-number"
