[edit]

Is Obed continuing the line of Mahlon or Elimelech - he is 'handed over' to Naomi? 81.96.105.12 (talk) 20:37, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Chilion vs. Kilion

[edit]

As discussed on Talk:Book of Ruth, the commonly-accepted standard for rendering Biblical names into English is the eighteenth-century punctuation and spelling edit of the King James Bible. We should depart from this only for a specific valid reason... AnonMoos (talk) 21:09, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sanhedrin?

[edit]

The article states, without providing any sources, that Boaz was head of the Sanhedrin. Since there are no contemporary sources to Boaz' life, it should be clarified what tradition it is that assigns him that role.Nikolaj1905 (talk) 18:39, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The word "sanhedrin" is completely anachronistic. There are traditions of the Great Assembly and the transmission of the Oral Torah, but I doubt that Boaz is mentioned in them... AnonMoos (talk) 19:00, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
