Dr. Buzzell categorizes the book of Ruth as a color book. Why?
-
Because it provides more details of the story, rather than move the story forward. Itaints a picture, so to speak, of the current events, rather than provide a timeline forward.
-
The book of Ruth does not move the narrative along necessarily, but it does provide greater details in setting us up for the birth of Kind David who is a prominent and necessary figure in the line of Christ. This book therefore adds necessary detail and color.
-
Because the color books add more picture to the story that was going on
-
Ruth is a book of detail; it does not move the story forward. It adds more detail to an already told story.
-
It provides more of an insight and detail to the Book of Judges
