Boaz was the rich kinsman, which means Boaz is a picture of Christ, the Redeemer. Ruth is the one who is being redeemed. Therefore Ruth is a picture of the Remnant chosen by grace, especially those on the N.T. side. Ruth was adopted into the family of Naomi, but was not a blood relative of Naomi. Naomi was instrumental in bringing Ruth with her. Therefore Naomi is a picture of that part of O.T. Israel which became saved, like the Apostle Paul preaching the Gospel to the Gentiles.
Boaz purchased the land for Naomi and for Ruth only, but for nobody else. The parcel of land that Boaz bought was just a token of the world that the Lord Jesus Christ bought for US, to provide an inheritance for His spiritual Ruth and Naomi. And on the Last Day He is going to remake it into a New Heaven and a New Earth where only righteousness dwells.
