What is The Book of Ruth

Read The Book of Ruth novel written by the author Dali098 on WebNovel, This serial novel genre is Historical Romance stories, covering romance, adventure. ✓ Newest updated ✓ All rights reserved

Synopsis

The Book of Ruth is named for the Moabite woman who commits herself to the Israelite people by an oath to her mother-in-law Naomi and becomes the great-grandmother of David by marriage to Boaz of Bethlehem. Thus she is an ancestor in the messianic line that leads to Jesus. The book portrays the love and loyalty of human beings in working their way through tragic circumstances to participation in the community of the faithful people of God. The key is responsible and loving decision-making: Ruth’s loyalty, her generosity and her willingness to take risks for the sake of righteousness set in motion a chain of beneficial events, while behind the scenes God blesses each step in the developing drama. Ruth is so frequently designated “the Moabite” in the book that the audience of the story is constantly reminded of the universality of the embrace of salvation. The beauty of the story’s construction, its use of dialogue (nearly two thirds of the text), and the sheer drama of its content mark it as one of the classic short stories of world literature. Based on the recollection of an historical figure, a story is developed which grips its audience with profound insight into divine and human relationships. The story is presented from a point some time after the course of events, as is indicated by the explanation of an obscure custom in. Wherever and whenever it was told, its claim of God’s universal concern for humankind and the attractiveness of caring human responsibility shines forth.

Traveling universes with God’s daughter as a system

Onmyo was your average male humanoid, or that’s what everyone thought, but in his own mind he knew he was not like everyone else. People around him clearly felt everything from love to hate. But Onmyo didn’t know why, but he always didn’t feel much of everything. Don’t get the mc wrong, he wasn't some sick psycho, but instead he just felt a toned down enough version of emotions to just not even show it on his face. He also had a version of memory loss where he can barely remember anything. The most he remembers from his childhood even is just random quick snip its of his memory’s. If you were to combine them all it wouldn’t even take a totally of 1 hour to replay all of them unless it’s preictally engraved in his mind he will remember. He also can’t focus for more than 30mins because losing focus. Also, he was lazy on a whole new level. Basically, you could call the mc retarded, but only retarded on certain parts only. The main reason he was called Onmyo was his eyes. That’s because he has two different eye colors and the pupils were black in his left eye and white in his right. (But enough talk about him, let's talk about the main reason.) On Christmas day he killed himself. The main reason was that he just felt why not, literally the mc killed himself on a whim *facepalm*. That’s when *cue the cliché scene* he meets god. But he started to question God, and his motives for reincarnation him for free and managed to impress God so much that God gave him an intelligent female system to join him in his adventure in the new worlds and wishes if they were heaven-defying. Now join Onmyo and his system on his journey to find family, love and also to find something to appease his boredom. ____________________________________________________________ Wow, ok so I think I wrote the synopsis too much. Welp. Anyways this is my first time writing a book and even worse I’m only a freshman so don’t count me to be a good author or even have stable updates. This is more of something for fun and if I manage to get a good amount of people reading this book, I might consider doing daily updates. Oh well enjoy the book. I also would love to improve so please rate and tell me anything I need to improve on. *ALSO CAREFUL I WILL BE ADDING A SHITTON OF CURSE WORDS*
