Ruth is the father of Obed, who begets Jesse, who begets David and Goliath, David begets Solomon.
Moses and Abraham were much before Ruth, but I think they were just her long lost great great great... grandfathers.
ANSWER: Ruth was a Moabite. She moved to Bethlehem with Naomi, her mother in law. Ruth married Boaz. They had a son named Obed. Obed was the father of Jesse, and Jesse was the father of David who became king of Israel. David was the father of Solomon who was king after his father David died. Ruth was not related to Abraham, or Moses, but came under the Old Covenant and was joined to the Israelis by a Kinsman-redeemer.
