    A family from Bethlehem moved to Moab due to famine. The father, Elimilech, and his two sons died, leaving Naomi and her daughters-in-law widowed. As the men were traditionally the providers, their deaths left Naomi and her daughters-in-law helpless. Boaz was a relative of Naomi's late husband who could help the women by marrying Ruth and providing for the family. Boaz helped Ruth because she was in need, demonstrating that we should help those who have less than ourselves.
