## In Jewish tradition

Here it means a small packet of money tied up and put in a sack. In Ruth it means bundles of cut grain, from which the reapers were told to pull out some stalks for Ruth to glean.

**Interpretation.** The rabbis read Boaz's order to leave extra grain as an example of kindness that spares the poor from shame.

### Examples

- And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack; and when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid. (Torah GEN.42.35, JPS 1917) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/B/bundle/#x1)
- And also pull out some for her of purpose from the bundles, and leave it, and let her glean, and rebuke her not.' (Writings RUT.2.16, JPS 1917) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/B/bundle/#x2)
