Ruth 1:2 (c) Moab may be taken to represent all that is outside of CHRIST in this world. Canaan or Palestine was GOD's country, and all other countries were heathen countries. Naomi and her husband left GOD's people to go down and live among the idolators. They found there were graves there, sorrow and tears abounded there. They were worse off in Moab than they were in Israel. Let us never think that we can find more blessing in the world among GOD's enemies than in the church among GOD's people.
