# All the people who were in the gate
"people who were meeting together near the gate"
"All the people who were at the gate"
# come into your house
# the two who built up the house of Israel
This has literal and figurative meaning. As Ruth marries Boaz, she will move into his house. House can also refer to becoming part of Boaz's family by being his wife. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"the two women who bore many children who became the nation of Israel"
# like Rachel and Leah
These were the two wives of Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel.
# built up the house of Israel
"bore many children who became the nation of Israel"

Ephrathah is the name of the clan to which Boaz belonged in Bethlehem.
