Wesley's Ruth 4:15 Bible Commentary

4:15 Thy life - That is, of the comfort of thy life. Born him - Or, hath born to him; that is, to thy kinsman a son. Better than seven sons - See how God sometimes makes up the want of those relations from whom we expected most comfort, in those from whom we expected least!The bonds of love prove stronger than those of nature.
