a walk with Ruth page 3 by ric gustafson
Ruth 1:3 says now Elimelech, Naomi's husband died and she was left with her two sons. We have not heard anything about the family's time in Moab or how long they were there. Now we see that Naomi's husband died. We are not sure what happened to him wether it was disease, old age we are not sure. This passage just states that Elimelech died and that was it. It was a surprise to Naomi but not to God. God knows when our first and last days are on this earth. In an instant, Naomi became the head of the household. And now she had to take care of her two sons alone.
