*** How could Boaz be trusted to rule that a Moabite is prohibited, but not a female Moabite? Didn’t we learn that a Torah scholar that teaches a new halacha at the time of the incident is not believed?
*** The Torah prohibits seeking peace with Ammon and Moav. Does this prohibition apply only to the males, or also to the females?
*** How was Yisra allowed to bring a sword into the Beis Medrash? The halacha is that one may not bring a sword into a Synagogue because one who prays will merit long life, and a sword shortens one’s life.

1. Chasam Sofer says similar.
2. Yes, Chemdas Yisroel says diyuk like that. He brings proof from Boaz doing chesed with Rus.

3. Ben Yehoyada asks - the sword is usually referred to as Esavs - why was he referred to as a Yishmaeli? Esav carries a large sword outside (exposed) - while Yishmael carries a small sword hidden in their garments. Because he was going into the Beis Medrash, he carried it Yishmael style instead of leaving it exposed.
I heard a great vort From Rav Wolfson about the sword and yishmael connection the Gemurah says I think esser kavin of tipshus came down to the world and the yishmaelim took 9 says the masgiach Rav wolfson When it comes to halacha lmoshe Misinai you have to make yourself like a tippish and ask no questions
