Shavuot 5786

Your People Shall Be My People: The Book of Ruth and Jewish Peoplehood

The Book of Ruth and in particular Ruth 1:16 is seen as a blueprint for those who choose Judaism and to be part of the Jewish People. In an age of ‘self-definition’ and fractious relationships, between Peoples and within a People, issues raised by the Book of Ruth are prescient.
