[Avodah] Another approach to Ruth's geirus

[via Avodah]

From: Akiva Miller via Avodah  avodah at lists.aishdas.org



It doesn't matter whether you call it "yibum," or you call  it
something else. My point is that there is no connection between Rus
and  Boaz unless Rus was indeed married, and if there was no geirus
then she was  *not* married and not connected to Boaz.

There was a difference of opinion about this even at the time the events in 
 Megillas Rus were taking place.  Ploni Almoni held that there was no 
mitzva  of yibum in this case while Boaz held that there was.
