He was the Ruth's father-in-law, and husband to Naomi.
Elimelech (Ruth 1:1-3). Elimelech and Naomi had two sons, Mahlon and Chilion.
There are none. Mahlon is only mentioned in the Book of Ruth in passing as Ruth's late husband and Elimelech and Naomi's son.
The following: Mahlon, Kilyon, Elimelech, Orpah, Boaz's field-workers, Naomi's neighbors, Tob, Ploni Almoni, Obed, and the ten Elders.See also:More about Ruth
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.
Chilion was the son of Elimelech and Naomi and the late husband of Orpah in the Book of Ruth.
They all died in Ruth, chapter 1, and all before the 6th verse. Ruth 1:3 And Elimelech Naomi's husband died; and she was left, and her two sons. Ruth 1:5 And Mahlon and Chilion died also both of them; and the woman was left of her two sons and her husband.
The Bible does not specify the cause of Elimelech's death in the Book of Ruth. It simply states that he died while living in the land of Moab, leaving his wife Naomi and their two sons. The circumstances surrounding his death remain unclear, and interpretations often focus on the broader themes of loss and hardship experienced by Naomi and her family.
She was returning home because her husband had died and her daughters husband's had died so they decided to go back to their native country. Ruth went along to help her.
It doesn't matter. When Orpah went back to her own country without raising an heir to Chilion, Mahlon became Elimelech's sole heir. Ruth and Boaz agreed to raise a child (Obed) to inherit everything that would have belonged to Elimelich. Reference: Ruth 4:9, 10, 17
The Bible does not specify but it states that he was of the family of Elimelech, who was the deceased husband of Naomi, Ruths' mother in law.
Dror Elimelech was born in 1956.
Elimelech's wife in the Bible was Naomi.
