“Before Israel was ruled by kings, Elimelech from the clan of Ephrath lived in the town of Bethlehem. His wife was named Naomi, and their two sons were Mahlon and Chilion. But when their crops failed in Israel, they moved to the country of Moab.” (Ruth 1:1–2 CEV) bible-history.com
This stark opening frames the entire story: a land known for its bread becomes a place of want. Yet the famine that drove Elimelech’s family from home is more than an agricultural disaster—it mirrors the emptiness of every human heart left to its own devices. Just as Naomi’s granaries lay bare, our souls, separated from God’s abundance, find themselves destitute.
