The Book of Ruth: NIV: Digital PDF
The Book of Ruth is a 48-page digital graphic novel in PDF format. The comic presents every word of the ancient scripture, within its historical, cultural and geographical context. It is aimed at mature readers but is appropriate for ages 12+. This edition features the NIV translation as well as verse numbers at the bottom of the pages.
The Story: Under the capricious and increasingly faithless government of the Judges period, the promised land has become war-torn and desolate. Famine and death jolt this story into motion and make a family of God's chosen people into desperate refugees. The book of Ruth is at once historical and prophetic, it tells the intertwined story of two dauntless women and the integral parts they play within the ultimate story of the Author and perfecter of all things.
TRANSLATION: The translation used is the World English Bible. It is an extremely reliable translation as it is based on the ASV, just like the NASB, RSV, NRSV, Amplified Version and The Living Bible.
