HE IS BUYING THE LAND OF
1: ELIMELELECH (MY GOD IS KING)
2: CHILION; PINING AND WAST AWAY,
3: MAHLON ; AND SICKNESS AND POVERTY,doesn't seem like a good buy on paper

Ruth 3:1
1: Then Naomi her mother in law said unto her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?
Isaiah 32:18
And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;
IN THE NEW TESTAMENT WE ARE ENCOURAGE TO SEEK GODS REST WHICH IS FOUND IN JESUS
JESUS SAYS
Matthew 11:28-29
28: Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Jesus wants his children to find rest in him
Luke 9:58
58: And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay(Klino)the word lay in Greek means Klino and Klino (means rest ) his head.
Mark 2:15
And it came to pass, that,
as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.
John 1:38-39
38: Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
39: He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth
I've gave you these two scriptures to see that Jesus did stay in a house so when he spoke about the son of man hath no place to lay his head he was not talking about a physical house,no he was talking about the rest he came to give you and me a rest from our sinful nature,which is a spirit filled rest
Psalms 38:3
There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger;
neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin.
The sin issue brought restlessness to mankind
In the gospels John is thee only one to record something significant that the other three left out lets read it.
1: Matthew 27:50
Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
2: Mark 15:37
And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
3: Luke 23:46
And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
BUT JOHN RECORDS
4: John 19:30
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said,
1:It is finished:
2: and he bowed(Klino)HIS HEAD
WHAT DOES bowed mean (KLINO)means to recline to lie back or rest in a recumbent position.THIS MEANS THAT JESUS FINALLY FOUND THE REST HE WANTED IN SAVING YOU AND ME , and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
Wow!!!
For many years I sat in church and I couldn't find rest for my sinful nature because I never understood this truth about spiritual rest that's found only in Christ.I tried to live the Christian life in my own effort and failed miserable,then one day I read the below scripture over and over again,and God drop something in my spirit,let's look at this scripture
Galatians 2:20-21
20: I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me:
and the life which I now live( notice now live) in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.( I use to quote this scripture of by heart yet I never understood it verse 21 is where it's at )let's read)
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: (i dont try to better what God has done already on the cross for me i just accept it
i do not frustrate it) for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
Paul is saying I quit trying to be righteous in my own flesh,I don't want to frustrate what God has done for me on the cross,I just accept it by faith and rest in his grace.Wow
Ruth 3:v 11
11: And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou requirest:
Fear not church I have taken care of all sin just rest in my finished work on the cross
Amen
