Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ruth and Naomi: A Scriptural Idyll, (Words Taken From the Bible, ) in Vocal Score, With an Accompaniment for Organ or Piano-Forte
Tn: great impression produced on reading the book of Ruth depends not merely upon the poetic charm which pervades this Idyll, but rather upon its own deep meaning.
The Israelitish law commanded the nearest relative of a widow to become her protector, and to marry her if she insisted upon her right. Only the woman, not the widow of foreign race, could plead this law.
