1 Ruth, the young woman from Moab After having lived many years in the land of Moab, and the death of her husband and her two sons, Naomi, now an older woman was returning to her homeland in Israel. Travelling with her was Ruth, a young woman, the wife of one of Naomi s deceased sons. Though Naomi had suggested to both of her daughter-in-laws to stay in their own country of Moab, Ruth chose to go with Naomi to her home in Israel. Do not urge me to leave you, for where you go I will go. Your people shall be my people and your God my God, said Ruth to Naomi. After the long journey, they arrived in Bethlehem during the harvest season. Because they were poor, Ruth went to glean grain left on the ground after the men had harvested the fields. There one day she meets Boaz, a land owner and relative of Naomi s deceased husband. Boaz and Ruth love each other and soon decide to be married. Together they had a son, called Obed, who was to be the grandfather of King David. And as this same line of family members went on for many generations, it one day had born to it a special baby, Jesus. Read this beautiful story in the Book of Ruth, chapters 1 through 4.
