Naomi had two sons and Ruth and her sister married those men. 10 years later their husbands died. Naomi had no one and couldn't not support anyone so she decided to go back to her home town bethlehem. Ruth forced herself on Naomi and went with her while the other sister stayed behind. Naomi told her not to because she had no more sons. Ruth believed so much in the Jewish teaching and converted to be a Jew. Ruth would go in the fields and glean to feed herself and her mother-in-law Naomi. Seeing how hard she was working Boez wanted to marry her but the next in line to have the right to marry her was another Kingsmen. The other had to say that he could not take care of Ruth so Boez married Ruth. Ruth bore a child Jesse and Jesse had King David. King David was related to Lord Jesus so Ruth is an ancestor or Lord Jesus.
Ruth was known as a kind person. She is known as a true converter. She practiced her Jewish teachings and also people look up to her. She believed the teachings in her heart.

.......The importance of Ruth is that in this story it shows the teachings of Jesus. Jesus taught people to love God and the teachings that you practice. He also wanted people to be faithful to each other. Ruth showed all of these qualities. She showed that she believed in the teachings fully and she did not abandon her mother-in-law and provided food for both of them by working hard for what she needed to keep both of them alive. She was repaid by getting a great husband. Almost like a teaching of karma. Shall you treat others how you wish to be treated. She treated the mother-in-law and she was treated by Boaz. Life seems to be fair in these stories to help people have the courage to follow all of these ethics.
The story of Ruth was a little bit different than mine but still ended the same way. The teachings are interpreted very well and directly relate to Jesus teachings.
Even though the story is a little bit different than Dominic's Chris showed how hard working Ruth was and how dedicated she was in taking care of them.
I think that the description of Ruth was good, it was a little different from Prado's though. But the teachings remained the same in that Ruth put her trust in God and had complete faith.
