Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 16. - And she went to her mother-in-law. And she said, Who art thou, my daughter? And she narrated to her all that the man had done to her. The question, "Who art thou, my daughter?" is not put by Naomi, as Drusius supposes, because it was still so dusk that she could not properly distinguish Ruth. The address, "My daughter," shows that she had no difficulty in determining who the visitor was. But there is something arch intended. "Art thou Boaz's betrothed?" Michaelis translates, "What art thou?" Unwarrantably as regards the letter, but correctly as regards the spirit of the interrogatory.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(16) who art thou?--We can hardly view this as a simple question as to Ruth's identity, but rather as meaning, how hast thou fared?
