|
* **to the elders and to all the people** - This refers to all the people who were present at the meeting place, not to everyone in the town.
|
||
|
|
* **all that was Elimelech's and all that was Chilion's and Mahlon's** - This refers to all the land and possessions of Naomi's dead husband and sons.
|
||
|
|
* **raise up the name of the dead** - The first son that Ruth bore would be legally considered Mahlon's son and would inherit the land that Boaz bought from Naomi.
|
||
|
|
* **the name of the dead will not be cut off** - This could also be translated as "he will not be left without a descendent."
