VIII. MAIN BODY:
A. Boaz represents CHRIST
"Then Boaz said to his servant who was set over the reapers,"
Every unbeliever is not known of GOD if he's rejecting the salvation of GOD.
Boaz symbolizes CHRIST - as Redeemer of our soul, Boaz is called kinsman-redeemer. Boaz's servants or reapers represents or symbolizes the angelic rulers and authorities mentioned in Ephesians 3:10
1 Corinthians 8:3 (Amplified Bible)
8:3 But if one loves God truly [with affectionate reverence, prompt obedience, and grateful recognition of His blessing], he is known by God [recognized as worthy of His intimacy and love, and he is owned by Him].
Only through the administration, power and authority that was placed in local churches a man can fully know GOD by having relationship with GOD. Any man or woman confessing that he's born again but does not have any local church that he or she is committed to, then he/she is lying.
Ephesians 3:10 (Amplified Bible)
3:10 [The purpose is] that through the church the complicated, many-sided wisdom of God in all its infinite variety and innumerable aspects might now be made known to the angelic rulers and authorities (principalities and powers) in the heavenly sphere.
That's why the evil spirit does not know the sons of sceva because they're not committed in a local church but they used the name of JESUS.
Acts 19:15 (Amplified Bible)
19:15 But [one] evil spirit retorted, Jesus I know, and Paul I know about, but who are you?
Boaz is the third brother of Elimelech, the husband of Naomi. Elimelech represents or symbolizes Adam who died not fulfilling his responsibility properly for all mankind. Therefore the second Adam - who is the LORD JESUS CHRIST represented by Boaz took the place of the first Adam.
Deuteronomy 25:5-9 (Amplified Bible)
25:5 If brothers live together and one of them dies and has no son, his wife shall not be married outside the family to a stranger [an excluded man]. Her husband’s brother shall go in to her and take her as his wife and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her.
25:6 And the firstborn son shall succeed to the name of the dead brother, that his name may not be blotted out of Israel.
25:7 And if the man does not want to take his brother’s wife, then let his brother’s wife go up to the gate to the elders, and say, My husband’s brother refuses to continue his brother’s name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of my husband’s brother.
25:8 Then the elders of his city shall call him and speak to him. And if he stands firm and says, I do not want to take her,
25:9 Then shall his brother’s wife come to him in the presence of the elders and pull his shoe off his foot and spit in his face and shall answer, So shall it be done to that man who does not build up his brother’s house.
1 Corinthians 15:45-46 (Amplified Bible)
15:45 Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit [restoring the dead to life].
15:46 But it is not the spiritual life which came first, but the physical and then the spiritual.
John 3:7 (Amplified Bible)
3:7 Marvel not [do not be surprised, astonished] at My telling you, You must all be born anew (from above).
In law, we need to pay for our sins and die on the cross, but CHRIST fulfilled this obligation for us, He died on the cross in our place thus fulfilling his Kinsman-Redeemer responsibilities to us.
B. Ruth represents the Church
"Whose maiden is this?"
Ruth symbolizes the Church that is married to Boaz symbolizing CHRIST.
Isaiah 54:5 (Amplified Bible)
54:5 For your Maker is your Husband—the Lord of hosts is His name—and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; the God of the whole earth He is called.
The LORD JESUS first loved us by noticing us from our sins.
1 John 4:19 (Amplified Bible)
4:19 We love Him, because He first loved us.
Romans 5:8 (Amplified Bible)
5:8 But God shows and clearly proves His [own] love for us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) died for us.
We got our good name and good reputation because of our husband's name - the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
John 3:29 (Amplified Bible)
3:29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the groomsman who stands by and listens to him rejoices greatly and heartily on account of the bridegroom’s voice. This then is my pleasure and joy, and it is now complete.
John 10:18 (Amplified Bible)
10:18 No one takes it away from Me. On the contrary, I lay it down voluntarily. [I put it from Myself.] I am authorized and have power to lay it down (to resign it) and I am authorized and have power to take it back again. These are the instructions (orders) which I have received [as My charge] from My Father.
Boaz volunteered his life to be Ruth's husband eventhough Ruth does not deserve Boaz because of Boaz's good reputation and good name. Since Elimelech who represented Adam died without fulfilling his responsibility of providing good name and good reputation for his wife: Ruth, the Second Adam the LORD JESUS CHRIST represented by Boaz fulfilled it for the first adam, now our name and reputation came from the LORD JESUS CHRIST - our spirituality, forgiveness of sins and healing and not the sinful adamic nature anymore.
Ruth 1:3 (Amplified Bible)
1:3 But Elimelech, who Naomi’s husband, died, and she was left with her two sons.
Romans 5:14 (Amplified Bible)
5:14 Yet death held sway from Adam to Moses [the Lawgiver], even over those who did not themselves transgress [a positive command] as Adam did. Adam was a type (prefigure) of the One Who was to come [in reverse, the former destructive, the Latter saving].
1 Corinthians 15:22 (Amplified Bible)
15:22 For just as [because of their union of nature] in Adam all people die, so also [by virtue of their union of nature] shall all in Christ be made alive.
1 Corinthians 15:45 (Amplified Bible)
15:45 Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit [restoring the dead to life].
Genesis 3:15 (Amplified Bible)
3:15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her Offspring; He will bruise and tread your head underfoot, and you will lie in wait and bruise His heel.
We can say because Elimelech died for unknown reasons as the bible is silent about these things, was irresponsible so the duty of destroying satan transferred to the Seed of the woman. The woman has no seed, but GOD provided the Seed (and the Lamb for sacrifice) - the LORD JESUS CHRIST to destroy satan under the church's feet.
Galatians 3:16 (Amplified Bible)
3:16 Now the promises (covenants, agreements) were decreed and made to Abraham and his Seed (his Offspring, his Heir). He [God] does not say, And to seeds (descendants, heirs), as if referring to many persons, but, And to your Seed (your Descendant, your Heir), obviously referring to one individual, Who is [none other than] Christ (the Messiah).
Galatians 3:19 (Amplified Bible)
3:19 What then was the purpose of the Law? It was added [later on, after the promise, to disclose and expose to men their guilt] because of transgressions and [to make men more conscious of the sinfulness] of sin; and it was intended to be in effect until the Seed (the Descendant, the Heir) should come, to and concerning Whom the promise had been made. And it [the Law] was arranged and ordained and appointed through the instrumentality of angels [and was given] by the hand (in the person) of a go-between [Moses, an intermediary person between God and man].
Romans 16:20 (Amplified Bible)
16:20 And the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) be with you.
Ephesians 4:12 (Amplified Bible)
4:12 His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ’s body (the church),
Ephesians 4:16 (Amplified Bible)
4:16 For because of Him the whole body (the church, in all its various parts), closely joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is supplied, when each part [with power adapted to its need] is working properly [in all its functions], grows to full maturity, building itself up in love.
CHRIST's body is the Church here on earth, it's natural for the feet to be on earth attached to the body.
IX. CONCLUSION:
Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS for You are our Kinsman-Redeemer and Husband from before the foundation of the world, now we serve You under the power and authority given to the local church.
