I just realized that the whole gleaning thing is a biblically authorized social program. It wasn't the temple taking care of the poor, it was government legislation. Ì need to remember this example for future discussions with certain people
@@donaldwert7137 Well, it's not just Ruth. In the priestly laws given in the Torah -- the first five books of the Bible -- it is MANDATED that when reaping your crop, you do not go back over it to catch the gleanings. You have to leave it for the poor, the widow, and the orphan. This is part of Jewish law.
"In order for women to get their own, they needed to exploit the patriarchy." My goodness, the healing that just happened for me in those words. Still today.
Sîn-ahhī-erība or Sîn-aḥḥē-erība, meaning "Sîn has replaced the brothers"). Sennacherib is not a disease you want. He was obsessed about his father’s death. In turn he assassinated his older son, removed his second son as crown prince, who ganged up with a younger son and assassinated him. The crown prince then chased the two sons to the far ends of the earth, never we here of these again. Family Politics was nor a strength of the Assyrian royal family.
38:57 "Frequently we're wrong when we try to dig in our heels." Truer words were never spoken. I've noticed that with myself. The more "certain" I am about something, the more I need to double and triple check my work to make sure I'm right and don't have my facts backwards.
The idea that Ruth tricked him has always bothered me. No one drinks to stupor when there’s too much work to make it home. He noticed her because of her hard work. He commended her for her loyalty to Naomi. She was brave enough to make a move on him. He asked her to stay the night because he intended to marry her. He emphasized that the other guy wouldn’t inherit so he would refuse and Boaz could marry her. A brave, loyal, hard working spouse is a find. She didn’t need to trick him.
my head-cannon is that Ruth, being a moabite, doesn't understand the feet/genital idiom.. so she literally uncovers his feet and he wakes up and he puts 2 and 2 together and and thinks its cute. the genre is romantic comedy.
Carole King KLEIN, born in 1940s Brooklyn, probably had some Reform Jewish education, including the female-centered Book (or “scroll” in Hebrew) of Ruth. There are some lovely parts of Tanach, even for secular humanists!
Gilmore Girls inspired Naomi and Ruth show?? In this case though Boaz would be the Luke. Him and Ruth would be the inevitable couple, and then Naomi could be the one with the unspecified "who will she end up with?" romances!
32:50 about the sandal exchange -> I was hoping for Dan M to explain the differences between this friendly exchange of chanclas against the scenario described in Deut 25.7-10 that also talks about the removal of a sandal but in a very very different way.
Side note: during the Holodomor, the penalty for gleaning was 10 years in the gulag or death, because gleaning was considered stealing socialist property.
The fact that Boaz is the one referenced in both genealogies of Jesus does throw a spanner into the works of either Matthew or Luke using levirate marriage to explain away the differences
Normally they raided enemy farms for food. Which wasn't fun for the farmers or the nation being invaded You still need supply lines but stealing the other guys lunch helps take the pressure off.
When you started saying you had a tradition with your wife on your birthday, knowing the context, I thought you were going a totally different direction...
Drunken old men in the Bible don't fare very well. People seem take advantage of them. The three women in Jesus' lineage , according to Matthew get in there in unusual ways.
On interpreting to your confort level and reading the Ruth and Boaz incident as a sexual assault (along the lines of Lot and Daughters, etc.), see Justin David Strong, "The Rape of Men in the Hebrew Bible, the Syrian Civil War, and the MeToo Movement." Pages 66-84 in Doing Biblical Masculinity Studies as Feminist Biblical Studies: Critical Interrogations. Sheffield Phoenix, 2023.
There is room for that reading for sure. With the story of Lot's daughters, I wonder if the writers even realized they were describing an assault on their way to giving a shitty origin story for the Moabitea and the Ammonites.
Did I miss something in the Ruth story ? In act 2 she is so poor she is picking up grain other people have left behind. In act 4 she is an heir with some encumberences, that never come up again. Act 4 Ruth would not need to act like Act 2 Ruth, she could live on her property and Jane Austin her way into another sutible marriage.

Just imagine the satisfaction when they say "the bible says..." and you can come back with "Well, in Ruth...".

@@RadicalCaveman Probably one of those laws that were magically erased in Paul's version of Christianity.
See how Ruth goes above and beyond? Very demure. Very mindful.

Healing from imagined injury due to hysterical feminism😂
Ask your doctor if Sennacherib is right for you.
Sennacherib and salsa, with jalapeños and melted cheese.
@@DneilB007 Consult a physician if your Nineveh persists for 5 decades.
😂😂😂
My life was just a series of public embarrassments until my Doctor prescribed Sennacherib.

Being sure makes you not review your position

I'm not telling you guys what to do but dan if you mention this podcast consistently in your reels i see ten fold followers
A Snacker Rib sounds delicious!

It’s a “meet cute.”
😂
OMG! I feel so seen! This has been my take for a few years, now, and this is the first time I've seen anyone else articulate it.
So what reason would she have had to uncover his feet?
@@debbieshrubb1222 She was told to do that.
I want to sing "Elimelech" to the tune of The Lion Sleeps Tonight.
🎶Eli-me-lech ah-woo, Eli-me-lech ah-woo🎶
😂
I like how Dan said that you can read it that way, but we can't day for sure. That's following the data
8:49 “where you go I will go” they were big Carole King fans 😂

9:00 A poem in first part and a theatrical scene in the threshing room in last part. It seems like a play written for performance.

I think Boaz just wanted to cuddle. What a gentleman.
He wanted to, but his feet got the better of him.
@NuisanceMan She lifted up the blankie and he got cold feet?
Holy of Holies!!!!! I actually laughed out loud.

"Night on the threshing floor." Not even gonna say what that title sounds like. 😂
@@lde-m8688 it’s a famous blues song by Howlin’ Wheat.
It sounds like Tom Waits trying to write a romantic album.
Wasn't there a Jimi Hendrix song about being "down on that threshin' flo"?
I was thinking of more in the "adult film" type of title 😂
It is hard to imagine the the logistics of all these wars. Just feeding tens of thousands of troops in the desert seems nearly impossible.

@@MrDalisclock And sometimes you raid your own farms if the trip is long. Or when it is just convenient.

Was there ever somewhere with the dialog

It's always funny when I realize how very Hebrew I pronounce these names by hearing the English pronunciation of them 😵
