One Year Bible: Day 137 - Ruth 3:1-4:22; John 9:35-10:21; Psalm 62:1-12
The
book of Ruth ends by locating Ruth within the family tree of David, the
shepherd-king. He, in his turn, forms part of the family tree of
Christ, “the Good Shepherd” (John 10:11), the “King of kings”
(Revelation 19:16). David, the shepherd of Israel, pointed away from
himself to Christ, “the Good Shepherd” who “lays down His life for the
sheep … only to take it up again” (John 10:11,17). The words of David
point us to Christ – “He alone is my Rock and my Salvation” (Psalm
62:2).
