On account of famine in Bethlehem of Judah, Naomi with her husband and two sons sojourned In the land of Moab. After the death of her hus band, her two sons married Moabitlsh women. After a time her sons died also. After the death of her sons, Naomi resolved to return to her home land, having heard that the Lord had visited his people In giving them bread. They went to Mosb to escape trouble but only got into more. This Is always the case when God’s people go into the world to escape difficul ties. It was not until Naomi was thus chastised that she resolved to return. When the time came for her to go. Ruth and Orpah accompanied her for a distance. II. Rut 11*4 Noble Choice (1:16-18). Greatly as Naomi loved her da ugh- tersdn law. she would not have them go Into this matter blindly. She wished them to know the seriousness of their action. • 1. No chance for them to mfcrry again (v. 11). Naomi told them that she had no more sons for whom they could wait la that day for a woman to be an- marrled was ft be greatest disgrace.
