Ruth 1:4
1:4 So her sons
married
Moabite women. (One was named Orpah and the other Ruth.)
And they continued to live there about ten years.
Ruth 4:10
4:10 I have also acquired Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, as my wife to raise up a descendant who will inherit his property
so the name of the deceased might not disappear
from among his relatives and from his village.
You are witnesses today.”
Ruth 3:4
3:4 When he gets ready to go to sleep,
take careful notice of the place where he lies down. Then go, uncover his legs,
and lie down
beside him.
He will tell
you what you should do.”
Ruth 4:5
4:5 Then Boaz said, “When
you acquire the field
from Naomi,
you must also
acquire Ruth the Moabite,
the wife of our deceased relative,
in order to preserve his family name by raising up a descendant who will inherit his property.”
Ruth 4:17
4:17 The neighbor women named him, saying, “A son has been born to Naomi.” They named him Obed.
Now he became the father of Jesse – David’s father!
Ruth 1:2
1:2 (Now the man’s name was Elimelech,
his wife was Naomi,
and his two sons were Mahlon and Kilion.
They were of the clan of Ephrath
from Bethlehem in Judah.) They entered the region of Moab and settled there.
Ruth 2:19
2:19 Her mother-in-law asked her,
“Where did you gather grain today? Where did you work? May the one who took notice of you be rewarded!”
So Ruth
told her mother-in-law with whom she had worked. She said, “The name of the man with whom I worked today is Boaz.”
Ruth 4:1
Boaz Settles the Matter
4:1 Now Boaz went up to the village gate and sat there. Then along came the guardian whom Boaz had mentioned to Ruth! Boaz said, “Come here and sit down, ‘John Doe’!” So he came and sat down.
Ruth 4:11
4:11 All the people who were at the gate and the elders replied, “We are witnesses. May the
Lord make the woman who is entering your home like Rachel and Leah, both of whom built up the house of Israel! May
you prosper
in Ephrathah and become famous
in Bethlehem.
