A Prodigal Family
Ruth 1:1-6
Skip Heitzig
Ruth 1 (NKJV™) | |
1 | Now it came to pass, in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem, Judah, went to dwell in the country of Moab, he and his wife and his two sons. |
2 | The name of the man was Elimelech, the name of his wife was Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion--Ephrathites of Bethlehem, Judah. And they went to the country of Moab and remained there. |
3 | Then Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died; and she was left, and her two sons. |
4 | Now they took wives of the women of Moab: the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth. And they dwelt there about ten years. |
5 | Then both Mahlon and Chilion also died; so the woman survived her two sons and her husband. |
6 | Then she arose with her daughters-in-law that she might return from the country of Moab, for she had heard in the country of Moab that the LORD had visited His people by giving them bread. |
