---Ruth 1:1 of the Holy Bible
The "famine" that's being spoken of here is a spiritual famine, not a literal one. This is because the Holy Bible, as every duly and truly initiated Free-Mason knows, is a spiritual book that symbolizes the Universe and Man (or the Macrocosm and the Microcosm) in accordance with the universal law of correspondence, which means that the Holy Bible symbolizes you, and that the Holy Bible is therefore not concerned with teaching any literal history when it tells the stories of the lives of the characters of its tales (in fact, there is no real historical evidence to prove the past existence of most of the characters of the Bible, including Jesus Christ). The symbolic stories of the Bible are timeless-wisdom stories that teach the secret and holy science of Man and the Universe which Man is a part of. Each and every one of the characters of the Holy Bible's stories are thus symbolic of particular manifestations of the one eternal energy that Man is made of, which the Universe (God) reveals to us through the rhythmic and eternal process of Creation in general. And so The Book of Ruth begins its symbolic and spiritual tale about the nature of Man by symbolically telling us that there is a spiritual famine in Man's life, which means that Man is experiencing spiritual poverty and spiritual starvation due to his lack of spirituality.
