Ruth Notes - Boaz (Christ) the Redeemer

Of Boaz....
And Naomi said unto her,
The man is near of kin unto us,
one of our next kinsmen.
Ruth 2:20

According to Adam Clarke.... "One of our next kinsmen - מגאלינו (miggoaleynu), of our redeemers, one who has the right to redeem the forfeited inheritance of the family. The word גאל (goel) signifies a near kinsman - one who by the Mosaic law had a right to redeem an inheritance,"
