Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The story begins with Naomi, a Jewish woman married to Elimelech from Bethlehem. They have two sons who marry non-Jewish, Moabite women named Orpah and Ruth. When Elimelech and his two sons die, Naomi commands widowed Orpah and Ruth to return to Moab for a fresh start. Orpah obeys, but Ruth refuses: “Do not urge me to leave you, to turn back and not follow you. For wherever you go, I will go; wherever you lodge, I will lodge; your people shall be my people, and your God my God.”

Hope this helps you sorry if it don't.

Ruth and Naomi return to Bethlehem were they are from. When they arrived, they began to harvest.The owner of the field, Boaz, was a kind man who believed in God. He knew Ruth and so told her to work with the other servant girls and that he would make sure she was safe and feed. Evenually Ruth married Boaz.
The purpose of the story was to be kind and make friends.
