【释义】：

脱鞋的人；(喻)证据

Now this was the manner in former time in Israel concerning redeeming and concerning changing, for to confirm all things; a man plucked off his shoe, and gave it to his neighbour: and this was a testimony in Israel.

Therefore the kinsman said unto Boaz, Buy it for thee. So he drew off his shoe.

And Boaz said unto the elders, and unto all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that was Chilion's and Mahlon's. of the hand of Naomi.

Ruth. 4:7-9

从前，在以色列中要定夺什么事，或赎回，或交易，这人就脱鞋给那人。

以色列人都以此为证据。

那人对波阿斯说：“你自己买吧!”于是将鞋脱下来了。

波阿斯对长老和众民说：“你们今日作见证，凡属以利米勒和基连、玛伦的，我都从拿俄米手中置买了。

《路得记》4∶7－9］
