Malbim: I do not want our brother's inheritance to fall to the hand of strangers.
Why did he say "Im Lo Yig'al"? He should have said "Tig'al", for he addressed the Go'el!
Torah Temimah citing Rus Rabah 7:9: These words he said to Beis Din.
Malbim: Refer to 4:3:2:1**.

Torah Temimah citing Rus Rabah: Do not say that you will redeem and take Rus into your house, but not for a wife 1 , for you already have a wife and children.
This is not enough. The proper redemption is to also take her for a wife (like "veha'Adam Yada Es Chavah Ishto" - Bereishis 4:1). (PF)
What is the meaning of "Ein Zulasecha"?
Rashi: There is no one else other than you who is closer to redeem [than I am].
Why did the Go'el initially want to redeem?
Malbim: Initially Bo'az mentioned only redeeming Na'ami's portion.
