Matthew Poole and continuators on Ruth 2:11

11 And Boaz answered and said unto her, It hath fully been shewed me, all that thou hast done unto thy mother-in-law, since the death of thine husband: and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy nativity, and art come unto a people which thou knewest not heretofore.

Of whom thou hadst no experience: for otherwise in general she could not be ignorant of this People.
