Bible: Ruth 4:5, 10
4:5 Then Boaz said, “When 1 you acquire the field 2 from Naomi, 3 you must also 4 acquire Ruth the Moabite, 5 the wife of our deceased relative, 6 in order to preserve his family name by raising up a descendant who will inherit his property.” 7 4:10 I have also acquired Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, as my wife to raise up a descendant who will inherit his property 8 so the name of the deceased might not disappear 9 from among his relatives and from his village. 10 You are witnesses today.”
