Ruth 3:13
Tarry this night, and it shall be in the morning, that if he will perform unto thee the part of a kinsman, well; let him do the kinsman’s part: but if he will not do the part of a kinsman to thee, then will I do the part of a kinsman to thee, as the Lord liveth: lie down until the morning.
Cross-reference

Ruth 4:5
Parallel
Ruth 4:5 shows Boaz fulfilling his promise from 3:13 by presenting the redemption terms to the nearer kinsman.
Deuteronomy 25:5–9
Historical context
Deuteronomy 25:5-9 outlines the levirate marriage law, providing the legal background for Boaz's role as kinsman-redeemer, though Ruth's case involves a wider relative.
