They were the twelve sons of Jacob. They're important because they are our ancestors.
Ruth is significant in Jewish history as a symbol of loyalty, faithfulness, and the inclusive nature of God's covenant. Her story, told in the Book of Ruth, highlights her commitment to her mother-in-law Naomi and her willingness to embrace the Jewish faith, despite being a Moabite. This act of loyalty not only solidifies her role in the lineage of King David but also underscores the theme of redemption and the acceptance of non-Israelites within the community of Israel. Ruth’s legacy exemplifies the universal appeal of Judaism and its values of kindness and compassion.
The Jewish People are known as the Lord's "Covenant people", which is a reference to the many covenants that the Lord made with the descendants of the Jews, most notably the Abrahamic Covenant. The Abrahamic covenant promised seed more numerous than the sands of the sea, and that through them all the people on Earth would be blessed. In other covenants, the Jews were promised a Mesiah and that after they were scattered, that Israel would be gathered again (meaning all twelve tribes) To the Christians, Jesus Christ is the promised Messiah, however the Jews do not believe so, and therefore, this is one way they can still be considered as people of an ongoing covenant because they are still searching for Him. They still follow the Law of Moses, and are still living that covenant, since they do not embrace the "New Covenant" that Jesus made with the world. Another reason is because Israel is not all gathered in, even though Israel is a independent nation again. This is because all of the lost tribes have not been found yet. A third is that the earth is still being blessed through the Jewish people. Not only culturally but spiritual and physically. The Old Testament of the Bible is a compilation of Jewish prophets, and a history of the Jewish People. Jesus Christ was a Jew throughout his life, and dutifully fulfilled the Law of Moses, therefore the New Testament is considered to be coming from the Jews too. The world is physically being blessed with the economic and technological contributions of people of the Jewish faith as well. Because not all of the Lord's covenants with Israel have been fulfilled yet, and they are still following the law of Moses they are considered an ongoing covenant.
