: : : I have just read the whole of the Book of Ruth in the King James version but have been unable to find the famous quote about Ruth standing "amidst the alien corn". Does this page maybe come in a later book, referring back to Ruth's story?

: : : I'd be very pleased to hear from someone who knows.

: : : Best wishes,

: : : Tom

: : I am doing a research paper on the book of ruth. There is no quote or page refering to "corn", this is used only as a metaphor. In the Interperiators Bible you will find that "corn" is a word used by Americans.

: The quote about ruth amid the alien corn is not from the bible, but rather from Keats Ode to a Nightingale. hope this is helpful
