Ruth 3:5-6

"I will do whatever you say," Ruth answered. So she went down to the threshing floor and did everything her mother-in-law told her to do.

 

I will do whatever you say

Ephesians 6:1  Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

Proverbs 6:20  My son, keep your father's command and do not forsake your mother's teaching.

Colossians 3:20  Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.

So she went down to the threshing floor 

Numbers 18:27  " 'Your offering will be reckoned to you as grain from the threshing floor or juice from the winepress.' "

Deuteronomy 15:12-14  If any of your people--Hebrew men or women--sell themselves to you and serve you six years, in the seventh year you must let them go free. And when you release them, do not send them away empty-handed. Supply them liberally from your flock, your threshing floor and your winepress. Give to them as the LORD your God has blessed you.

Judges 6:36-40  Gideon said to God, "If you will save Israel by my hand as you have promised--look, I will place a wool fleece on the threshing floor. If there is dew only on the fleece and all the ground is dry, then I will know that you will save Israel by my hand, as you said." And that is what happened. Gideon rose early the next day; he squeezed the fleece and wrung out the dew--a bowlful of water. Then Gideon said to God, "Do not be angry with me. Let me make just one more request. Allow me one more test with the fleece, but this time make the fleece dry and let the ground be covered with dew." That night God did so. Only the fleece was dry; all the ground was covered with dew.

Ruth 3:14  So she lay at his feet until morning, but got up before anyone could be recognized; and he said, "No one must know that a woman came to the threshing floor."
