The Book of Ruth is a short yet powerful book in the Old Testament, consisting of four chapters. It tells the inspiring story of Ruth, a Moabite woman who shows faithfulness, loyalty, and trust in God. After the death of her husband, she chooses to stay with her Israelite mother-in-law, Naomi, and follows her to Bethlehem, saying the famous words:
📖 Ruth 1:16 (ESV)
👉 "Your people shall be my people, and your God my God."
In Bethlehem, Ruth meets Boaz, a kind and wealthy man who eventually marries her. Their son, Obed, becomes the grandfather of King David, making Ruth an ancestor of Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:5).
