About this listen
The Book of Ruth recounts the journey of Naomi, a woman who loses her husband and sons while living in Moab during a famine. She returns to Bethlehem with her Moabite daughter-in-law, Ruth, after encouraging both her daughters-in-law to stay in Moab. Ruth demonstrates unwavering loyalty to Naomi, vowing to remain with her and adopt her people and God. Upon their arrival in Bethlehem, Ruth meets Boaz, a wealthy relative of Naomi's late husband, through gleaning in his fields. Boaz recognizes Ruth's virtuous character and, after a legal process involving a closer kinsman, marries her. Their union leads to the birth of Obed, who becomes the grandfather of King David, thereby providing a lineage to a significant figure in Israelite history.
