The answer is: Uncovered his feet and lay down

Ruth 3:7

In an interesting twist of fate, Ruth's act of uncovering Boaz's feet and laying down is steeped in cultural significance. This hasn’t potentially rich overtones; it act symbolizes her trust in Boaz, as well as a bold assertion of her desire for protection and companionship. The tradition lies not only in agricultural customs—like gleaning in the fields for survival—but also showcases a deeper call for familial loyalty and kinsman-redeemer relationships.

Ruth, a Moabite widow integrating into Israelite society, displays an incredible blend of bravery and submission. When she approaches Boaz, she isn’t merely becoming vulnerable but is dauntlessly navigating her new reality while embracing the heritage of her life partner, who had passed away—simply stepping across cultural boundaries to express hope and rebuild her future in a genuinely delicate maneuver.

Interestingly, Boaz's response to Ruth mirrors elements of previous Biblical encounters. Much like the unexpected alliances seen with women in the Bible—Tamar’s cleverness or Esther’s courage—Ruth’s story adds a wonderful layer to the heritage of Israel. And let’s not forget the genealogy twist: Ruth becomes the great-grandmother of King David! This interlacing of legacies, within a tapestry of loyalty and divine providence, paints a picture of salvation history continuing through the most unlikely of people. It’s a reminder that the paths toward fulfillment can journey through unexpected encounters and choices determined by the heart.
