The Book of Ruth: (The Ancient Path) Group Studies Introduction

The Book of Ruth original studies, here on AncientPath.net, were written back in 2012. The intended audience was for first time Bible Studiers and following the book's text was many questions designed to teach a "first-timer" both the contents of the book and also leading one through individual questions that were aimed at teaching the art of Bible Study.

In 2024 a new approach is being added to the Book of Ruth Bible Studies - one that is geared to those familiar with both the book and Bible Study in general, and written for group studies, Sunday School classes, Evening classes, and Home Bible Studies. The contents of the older studies questions have been woven into the discussions and commentaries. They are still fairly "in-depth" studies. As these studies are completed they will be added to the list above. Each study will also be available for download from that study for your use as a teacher, and as documents for your students to follow along with – allowing them to both hear with their ears and see with their eyes.
