Tradicionalmente, el libro de Ruth se considera una hermosa historia de amor entre Rut y Booz. Sin embargo, si uno hurga más hondo, hallará revelaciones sorprendentes: que Dios hace mucho con las vidas destrozadas, que llama a hombres y mujeres para que les sirvan juntos, y que cuenta con sus hijas para edificar su reino.Esta no es la Rut, ni la Noemí, ni el Booz que pensábamos que conocíamos...Carolyn James ha desenterrado nociones nuevas y...
