At mealtime Boaz said to her, “Come here and eat some bread and dip your morsel in the wine.” So she sat beside the reapers, and he passed to her roasted grain. And she ate until she was satisfied, and she had some left over.
Ruth 2:14
The whole Bible is one story that consistently points to our Lord Jesus Christ, and Boaz points us very clearly to Jesus. Naomi describes him as “one of our redeemers” (2:20). Jesus is the Redeemer who welcomes us and blesses us. And Jesus welcomes us to His table.
Boaz sits down for lunch with the reapers. Jesus used the image of reapers to describe the work to which He calls us. “The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into his harvest” (Lk. 10:2). The greatest joy is the communion you have with Him in doing what He has called you to do.
Boaz invited Ruth to his table spread with bread and wine. And there is an open invitation to this table. It is for all who are hungry, for all who will come, for all who will receive.
Notice that when people come to his table, Boaz is the one who feeds them. Ruth “sat beside the reapers, and he passed to her roasted grain” (2:14). Christ is the One who feeds us at His table. Draw near to Him in faith, and He will nourish you.
Ruth came to the table, and when she ate, she was satisfied. You can’t read that without thinking about Jesus feeding the 5,000. “They all ate and were satisfied. And… twelve baskets full of broken pieces” were left over (Mk. 6:42-43).
Jesus welcomes you. Jesus will bless you. Jesus will feed you at His table. And Jesus will provide for you.
Have you experienced the joy of fellowship at Jesus’ table? Express your gratitude to Him for the way He provides for you.
