Bible (BBE) 08: Ruth

The "Bible (BBE) 08: Ruth" is a book in the Bible in Basic English (BBE) translation. The BBE was translated by an American committee led by S.H. Hooke and is based on Basic English, a simplified form of English developed by linguist Charles Kay Ogden. This translation was created to make the Bible more accessible to non-native English speakers and to serve as an international auxiliary language. Basic English utilizes a vocabulary of around 850 words, making it easier for beginners to understand. The book of Ruth tells a story of loyalty and devotion, and is a part of the larger biblical narrative.
