One character in this book calls  herself (*)
Lawrence A. Englander penned a "Mystical Study" of this book, a close reading of center portion of the fragmentary  Midrash ha-Ne'elam from the Zohar. The final verse of this book traces "the generations of Pharez" all the way to David.  In the last chapter of this book, ten elders arbitrate proceedings in which a man takes off his shoe and gives it to his  neighbor to confirm that he is relinquishing his right of redemption to his kinsman. One character in this book calls  herself (*) Mara to reflect her bitterness at the deaths of Mahlon, Chilion, and Elimelech. The title character of this book  uncovers the feet of a sleeping gleaner, who then spreads his cloak around her, uniting the two in marriage. Its title character says  "your people shall be my people, and your God, my God," refusing to abandon her mother-in-law Naomi as she returns to  Bethlehem from Moab. For 10 points, name this short Old Testament book whose title devoted woman marries Boaz.
