How did elimelech and his two sons die?

Answer 1

Elimelech was Naomi's husband. When a famine came to the area around Bethlehem, Elimelech and Naomi moved to Moab (Moab was the name of Lot's elder daughter's son and the people and land are named after him.) Moab is where Elimelech died.

This story can be found in the book of Ruth.
