Ruth 1 15:17

>“Look,” said Naomi, “your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and her gods; follow her back home.”

>But Ruth replied:

>“Do not urge me to leave you

>or to turn from following you.

>For wherever you go, I will go,

>and wherever you live, I will live;

>your people will be my people,

>and your God will be my God.

>Where you die, I will die,

>and there I will be buried.

>May the LORD punish me,

>and ever so severely,

>if anything but death

>separates you and me.”

Does anyone think this is too much for a woman to say to her step-mother? Were Ruth and Naomi lesbian?

No. This is an example of true friendship and Christian self-sacrificial love. Also be minded that this is a fictional narrative anyway.

Your mind has been poisoned by porn and Hollywood propaganda. Better start detoxing now.

metaphysically sound explanation, but why of all the OT stories do you find this one to be fictional?

>Israelite economic immigrants move to Moab, son named Mahlon marries local girl named Ruth

>guy dies, girl gets widowed, stays with her already widowed mother-in-law out of filial devotion, they take up a work as farmhands

>girl finds a good mannered, reasonably wealthy guy who happens to be a borderline autistic volcel named Boaz (he's gently awaken by an attractive woman and his first thought is that she must be the devil lol)

>instructed by her no-nonsense mother-in-law girl expresses her devotion to him in a manner that should be pretty clear for grown up men of all ages despite the allegorical language and the guy is a good enough sportsman to marry her afterwards

>he circumvents the levirate law by bribing some schmuck relative of his, a cheerful ethno-comedic closure

true friendship shows only under distress, everything in life but love has a price and one good girl's worth a thousand bitches, that's the moral of the story. highly recommended reading for young Christian men and especially, women.

consider the following: lesbians simply don't exist in an archaic-patriarchal society (in the same sense how heterosexuals simply do not exist in US prisons), the exact reason why the OT doesn't deal with female homosexuality. a woman is born to be the property of her father who transfers her to her husband as soon as she starts bleeding. submission entire and perfect leaves no place for sexual self-determination.

It's hard to understand in 2019, after over a century of Jewish brainwashing geared toward convincing you that all intimacy must be sexual, but ancient peoples could be intimate without being inappropriate. Their societies weren't as alienating as ours is.

Think of the Gospels, where John would sit on Jesus' lap. It's an expression of love, to be sure, but it doesn't imply faggotry.

I find lots of them to be, by fictional I don't mean I think less of the book or somehow don't like it, it isn't an insult. It's simply a fictional narrative inspired by God for our instruction and edification, like Tobit, Jonah, Job, etc. There is nothing wrong wi th God allowing novels and novellas in the scripture, it is a library after all.
