7 (Now this used to be the customary way to finalize a transaction involving redemption in Israel: A man would remove his sandal and give it to the other party. This was a legally binding act in Israel.) 8 So the guardian said to Boaz, |You may acquire it,| and he removed his sandal. Ruth 4:7-8, New English Translation.
