Which phrase is used to describe Ruth's significance in the subtitle?

• A. An Odyssey of Ruth
• B. The story of a faithful pagan in an unfaithful time
• C. A tale of two nations
• D. The law of harvest

Answer: (B)

The main idea being tested is Ruth’s faithful loyalty as a Gentile woman set against a time of widespread unfaithfulness in Israel. That subtitle frames Ruth as someone outside Israel who chooses Naomi’s God and remains steadfast, yet she plays a central role in God’s plan by becoming part of the Davidic lineage. It highlights both her personal faith and the broader theme that God works through unlikely, faithful people to advance his purposes, even in morally challenging times. The other phrases miss that combination: they emphasize epic travel, national tensions, or harvest laws, rather than Ruth’s faithful commitment and her place in Israel’s history.
