Sticking Together

 


This is a triptych of Ruth.  Grandma uses Ruth's story to teach the importance of family.  Everyone needs to help each other and how staying together was better than each going their separate ways.  

This triptych is by Thomas Matthews Rooke, 1876

The first image is of Ruth and Naomi--Mother-in-Law.  The middle picture is Ruth and Boaz.  Finally, the last picture is the son of Ruth and Boaz, who will one day be the grandfather of King David.
