# Ruth #
## Facts: ##
Ruth was a Moabite woman who married an Israelite man who had moved to Moab with his family during the time when judges were leading Israel.
* Ruth's husband died, and some time after that she left Moab to travel with her mother-in-law Naomi, who was returning to her hometown, Bethlehem in Israel.
* Ruth was loyal to Naomi and worked hard to provide food for her.
* She also committed herself to serving the one true God of Israel.
* Ruth married an Israelite man named Boaz and gave birth to a son who became the grandfather of King David and the ancestor of Jesus Christ.
