Ruth chapters 3 and 4: the nighttime meeting between Boaz and Ruth and... it works! Desolation and despair is replaced with birth and gladness.
Rabbi Gamliel presents on ch.4 with the beautiful insight that if Shoftim teaches us that individual acts of evil can metastasise into society wide calamities, Ruth teaches that small acts of kindness can become waves of societal regeneration
A wonderful book, superlatively taught.https://www.sefaria.org/Ruth.4?lang=bi
