7 Now this in former times was the manner in Israel between kinsmen, that if at any time one yielded his right to another: that the grant might be sure, the man put off his shoe, and gave it to his neighhour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel. 8 So Booz said to his kinsman: Put off thy shoe. And immediately he took it off from his foot. Ruth 4:7-8, Douay-Rheims Bible. Public domain.
