Biographical note: Andrea Beyer, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Erlangen.
| Summary: | Biographical note: Andrea Beyer, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Erlangen. Biographical note: Andrea Beyer, University of Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. The Book of Ruth cannot be understood simply in terms of an emancipatory impetus or a history of integration. Its substantive and structural form is shaped by literary references and poetic allusions that interpret earlier narratives and lend it theological poignancy. As a history of hope in the gestalt of a family story, the Book of Ruth is a variant of wisdom theology in which human and divine actions are inseparably bound together. Weder mit emanzipatorischem Impuls noch als Integrationsgeschichte ist das Ruthbuch recht verstanden. Literarische Bezugnahmen und Anspielungen in Versen, die bisher Erzähltes deuten, prägen das inhaltlich-strukturelle Profil und verleihen ihm theologische Schärfe. Als Hoffnungsgeschichte in Gestalt einer Familiengeschichte präsentiert es eine Spielart weisheitlicher Theologie, in der Gottes und menschliches Handeln untrennbar verbunden sind.
