Boaz and Ruth According to the Biblical Narrative , Obed ( Hebrew : עוֹבֵד , ‘Ōḇēḏ , "worshipper") was a son of Boaz and Ruth . [ 2 ] He is named as one of Jesus ' ancestors in the genealogies recorded in the Gospel of Matthew [ 3 ] and the Gospel of Luke .
Since the first son of Ruth and a kinsman of her late husband would be deemed the legal offspring of the decedent and heir to Elimelech, the other kinsman defers to Boaz. In marrying Ruth, Boaz revives Elimelech's lineage, and the patrimony is secured to Naomi's family. Their son was Obed, father of Jesse, and grandfather of David.
Boaz then redeemed the land and acquired Ruth. Ruth became Boaz's wife, and bore him a son. After Ruth gives birth, Naomi takes Obed to her breast. The women of Bethlehem name him Obed and say that Naomi has a son. Obed became the father of Jesse, the father of King David. [1]
In the New Testament, he married "Rachab" of Matthew 1:5 (possibly Rahab, of Jericho), and Boaz (or Booz) was their son. Thus, according to the biblical genealogies, Salmon is the patrilineal great-great-grandfather of David. Salmon is mentioned in 1 Chronicles (1 Chronicles 2:10–11), the Book of Ruth (Ruth 4:20,21), Matthew 1:4-5, and Luke 3:32.
The child is named Obed, whom the reader discovers is "the father of Jesse, the father of David" (Ruth 4:13–17); that is, he is the grandfather of King David, and so Ruth is the great-grandmother of King David.
