    This passage from Ruth 1:2-5 tells the story of Elimelech and his family leaving Bethlehem to live in Moab due to famine. Despite difficult circumstances, they disobey God’s command, leading to tragedies. The passage challenges us to consider our obedience to God in difficult times and to rely on Jesus for victory over sin.
