    God his king, a man of the tribe of Judah, of the family of the
    Hezronites, and kinsman of Boaz, who dwelt in Bethlehem in the
    days of the judges. In consequence of a great dearth he, with
    his wife Naomi and his two sons, went to dwell in the land of
    Moab. There he and his sons died (Ruth 1:2,3; 2:1,3; 4:3,9).
    Naomi afterwards returned to Palestine with her daughter Ruth.
