Rut 1:3 Meaning and Commentary

Ruth 1:3

And Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died
According to Josephus F24, after he had dwelt in the land ten years, and had married his two sons to Moabitish women; but, as Alshech observes, the text shows that while he was living they were not married to them, but after his death; and it is said of them only that they dwelt there about ten years; so that it is most probable that their father died quickly after he came into the land of Moab: and she was left, and her two sons; in a strange land, she without a husband, and they without a father.

Rut 1:3 In-Context

1 OR al tempo che i Giudici giudicavano, fu una fame nel paese. E un uomo di Bet-lehem di Giuda andò a dimorare nelle contrade di Moab, con la sua moglie, e con due suoi figliuoli.
2 E il nome di quell’uomo era Elimelec, e il nome della sua moglie Naomi, e i nomi de’ suoi due figliuoli Malon e Chilion; ed erano Efratei, da Bet-lehem di Giuda. Vennero adunque nelle contrade di Moab, e stettero quivi.
3 Or Elimelec, marito di Naomi, morì, ed essa rimase co’ suoi due figliuoli.
4 Ed essi si presero delle mogli Moabite; il nome dell’una era Orpa, e il nome dell’altra Rut; e dimorarono quivi intorno a dieci anni.
5 Poi amendue, Malon e Chilion, morirono anch’essi; e quella donna rimase priva de’ suoi due figliuoli, e del suo marito.
