But Ruth also is a record of suffering?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' As it says, 'And there was a famine in the land'. (Ruth I, 1.) ');"><sup>16</sup></span> — It is a suffering with a sequel [of happiness], as R. Johanan said: Why was her name called Ruth? — Because there issued from her David who replenished<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' [H] which R. Johanan connects with [H] ');"><sup>17</sup></span>
