Hello-hello, Mary-Lou! In my browsing this morning, I was just about to arrive at your J-thread, but first I must greet you here.

Uncover his feet? I think I’m missing a cultural reference here.

excellent point

I will take an uneducated guess based upon a belief that all Scripture points to Jesus

This was asking for the covering of a kinsman redeemer. An archetype. We lay ourselves at Jesus' feet while seeking His protection.

btw I like #19 as it preserves the integrity or innocence regarding the situation and it reminds the viewer that the threshing floor was a man's place and other men were sleeping there

Ruth was so obedient, dedicated and trusting of Naomi, that she took a huge gamble on her reputation. As a woman, I would have found this task a lot more difficult than leaving home and following her to Judah.

I like your argument. I don’t know what is correct, but I like your premise and development.
