The Dates of the Judges timeline is from Dr Irving Jensen and is more detailed, but keep in mind that the specific dates of the judges are "best approximations." That said, Dr Jensen feels that Ruth occurred near the end of the time of the book of the Judges (?1120 BC). Irving Jensen's Survey of Bible (see his summary of Ruth online - page 392) ( Note: All dates are approximations & time gaps NOT to scale) Jdg 21:25 In those days there was no king in Israel everyone did what was right in his own eyes.

And he went in to her, n and the Lord gave her conception, and she bore a son. May you act worthily in j Ephrathah and k be renowned in Bethlehem, 12 and may your house be like the house of Perez, l whom Tamar bore to Judah, because m of the offspring that the Lord will give you by this young woman.”ġ3 So Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife. May the Lord make the woman, who is coming into your house, like Rachel and Leah, h who together i built up the house of Israel. You are witnesses this day.” 11 Then all the people who were g at the gate and the elders said, “We are witnesses. 10 Also Ruth the Moabite, the widow of Mahlon, I have bought to be my wife, f to perpetuate the name of the dead in his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brothers and from the gate of his native place. 9 Then Boaz said to the elders and all the people, “You are witnesses this day that I have bought from the hand of Naomi all that belonged to Elimelech and all that belonged to e Chilion and to Mahlon. 8 So when the redeemer said to Boaz, “Buy it for yourself,” he drew off his sandal. Take my right of redemption yourself, for I cannot redeem it.”ħ d Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redeeming and exchanging: to confirm a transaction, the one drew off his sandal and gave it to the other, and this was the manner of attesting in Israel. But if you 1 will not, tell me, that I may know, for there is no one besides you to redeem it, and I come after you.” And he said, “I will redeem it.” 5 Then Boaz said, “The day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you also acquire Ruth 2 the Moabite, the widow of the dead, in order b to perpetuate the name of the dead in his inheritance.” 6 c Then the redeemer said, “I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I impair my own inheritance. 4 So I thought I would tell you of it and say, a ‘Buy it in the presence of those sitting here and in the presence of the elders of my people.’ If you will redeem it, redeem it. 3 Then he said to the redeemer, “Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, is selling the parcel of land that belonged to our relative Elimelech. 2 And he took ten men z of the elders of the city and said, “Sit down here.” So they sat down. So Boaz said, “Turn aside, friend sit down here.” And he turned aside and sat down. And behold, y the redeemer, of whom Boaz had spoken, came by. 4 Now Boaz had gone up to x the gate and sat down there.
