Summary:
The story of Ruth and Boaz is told in the Old Testament book of Ruth. Here is a brief summary:

Ruth was a Moabite woman who married a man from Bethlehem named Mahlon. After Mahlon
and his brother died, Ruth's mother-in-law, Naomi, urged Ruth and her other daughter-in-law,
Orpah, to return to their families in Moab. Orpah left, but Ruth decided to stay with Naomi and
travel with her back to Bethlehem.

In Bethlehem, Ruth began to glean in the fields to provide for herself and Naomi. She happened
to be gleaning in the field of Boaz, a wealthy landowner who was also a relative of Naomi's
husband. Boaz was impressed by Ruth's hard work and kindness to Naomi, and he allowed her to
glean in his fields and provided extra grain for her.

Naomi realized that Boaz was a potential husband for Ruth, so she instructed Ruth to go to Boaz
at night, uncover his feet while he was sleeping, and lie down. Boaz woke up and was surprised
to find Ruth there, but he praised her for her loyalty to Naomi and agreed to marry her.

Boaz redeemed Naomi's land and married Ruth. They had a son named Obed, who became the
grandfather of King David.

The story of Ruth and Boaz is often seen as a story of loyalty, kindness, and redemption.
