Jerusalem Rabbi Dror Moshe Cassouto explains the connection between the Book of Ruth and the Festival of Shavuot.

Ruth, a Moabite woman, was widowed. Rather than returning to her own people after losing her husband, she chose to follow her mother-in-law, Naomi, pledging to follow in her ways.

Ruth demonstrated pure faith, and for doing so merited to become the great-grandmother of King David.

In this video, Jerusalem Rabbi Dror Moshe Cassouto, known as “Rav Dror,” explains the connection of the Book of Ruth and Shavuot.
