Best Answer

When an awful famine came to Israel, Naomi, her husband and two sons went to the land of Moab to survive. The two sons married Moabite women, but both died soon after.

Ruth, the Moabite wife of Mahlon, desired to be blessed by the God of the Hebrews, as Naomi had shown her. When the famine was over, she went back to Israel with Naomi. God made it possible for Ruth to meet Boaz, a kind Israelite landowner. He showed her favor, giving her enough grain from his fields to care for her and Naomi. Naomi was a close relative of Boaz, and so she told Ruth to rest at his feet at the end of the day, as a next of kin. When Boaz realized this, he married Ruth, and she became a blessed Israelite. She became the grandmother of King David, and the ancestor of Jesus.
