Summary
Date: 700-950 C.E.
Ruth Rabbah, also known as Midrash Rut, is a sixth-century midrash on the Book of Ruth with verse-by-verse interpretations on most of the book, compiled in Israel. The commentary in the book is often introduced by a poem or series of poems. While the midrash expands upon the biblical story, it does not introduce new characters or supernatural events. The English text is The Sefaria Midrash Rabbah (2022), translated by Joshua Schreier under managing editor Jason Rappoport, and used under a CC BY license.
