Was King David Ruth's son?

Question

I have to do a report on Ruth ( from the Jeweish bible)
and I need to know if king david was her son.

Answer 1

No, King David was not her son. Her son's name was Obed... however, King David was one of her descendants...Obed was the father of Jesse and Jesse was the father of David...(King David)

Answer 2

I don't know that the Bible states the name of King David's mother. I looked it up real quick and it appears that David is Ruth's great-grandson.

Answer 3

Ruth was married to Boaz who was the father of Obed, who was the father of Jesse, who was the father of David which would make Ruth great grandma! You can trace this in the 1st chapter of Matthew.

Answer 4

Right relationship, wrong generation. Read the last few verses of the book of Ruth.

Answer 5

No. Ruth had Obed. Obed had Jesse. Jesse had David. Any other reference to Ruth would be a genealogical reference.

Answer 6

Deuteronomy 23:a million-6 speaks of fellows who've been emasculated via crushing or reducing of their genitalia no longer entering into the assembly of the Lord. this implies eunuchs could desire to no longer serve interior the Tabernacle or the Temple. Verse a million does not prepare to Ruth. Verse 2 speaks of "a forbidden marriage" yet with Ruth, it became no longer a forbidden marriage. She had legally married one among Naomi's sons in Moab. as quickly as widowed, and returning with Naomi to Bethlehem, she became well-called a Jewish convert and then it became chanced on that the Leverite regulation for marriage utilized, so as that Naomi could desire to work out little ones born into her now ineffective husband's family members line. Ruth grew to become a surrogate mom, because it have been, for the now childless Naomi. It became via distinctive characteristic of Boaz, a organic born Israelite, that the line became maintained and well-known. Verse 4 lower back mentions no longer entering into the assembly of the Lord, so i think of this speaks of formal worship. Verse 6 forbids a treaty between the international locations of Moab and Israel, so as that doesn't prepare to the account of Ruth. i think of the main ingredient is that as quickly as Deuteronomy speaks of no longer entering into the assembly of the Lord, this implies assembly for worship on the Tabernacle or the Temple. yet whilst i'm incorrect, i'm particular somebody will appropriate me!

Answer 8

You've already gotten the right answer about David being Ruth's great grandson but here's part of a commentary on that book. You can download the e-Sword software from a link on the Free Stuff page at http://web.express56.com/~bromar/ if you want the software I'm copying this from and it's FREE!

Ruth - Albert Barnes commentary
Introduction to Ruth
The Book of Ruth is historically important as giving the lineage of David through the whole period of the rule of the Judges Rth_1:1, i. e. from Salmon who fought under Joshua, to “Jesse the Bethlehemite” 1Sa_16:1; and as illustrating the ancestry of “Jesus Christ, the son of David,” who “was born in Bethlehem of Judea” Mat_1:1; Mat_2:1. The care with which this narrative was preserved through so many centuries before the birth of Christ is a striking evidence of the providence of God, that “known unto God are all His works from the beginning of the world.” The genealogy with which the Book closes Rth_4:18, is also an important contribution to the chronology of Scripture history. We learn from it, with great distinctness, that Salmon, one of the conquering host of Joshua, was the grandfather of Obed, who was the grandfather of king David; in other words, that four generations, or about 200 years, span the “days when the Judges ruled.”

But the Book of Ruth has another interest, from the charming view it gives us of the domestic life of pious Israelites even during the most troubled times. If we only had drawn our impressions from the records of violence and crime contained in the Book of Judges, we would have been ready to conclude that all the gentler virtues had fled from the land, while the children of Israel were alternately struggling for their lives and liberties with the tribes of Canaan, or yielding themselves to the seductions of Canaanite idolatry. But the Book of Ruth, lifting up the curtain which veiled the privacy of domestic life, discloses to us most beautiful views of piety, integrity, self-sacrificing affection, chastity, gentleness and charity, growing up amidst the rude scenes of war, discord, and strife.

Ruth, from its contents, as anciently by its place in the canon, belongs to the Book of Judges, and is a kind of appendix to it. In the present Hebrew Bible it is placed among the Kethubim (Hagiographa), in the group containing the Song of Solomon, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, and Esther; but in the Greek Septuagint and the Latin Vulgate it occupies the same place as in our English Bibles, which was its ancient place in the Hebrew Bible.

The language of the Book of Ruth is generally pure Hebrew. But there are words of Aramaic form and origin , and other expressions unique to the later Hebrew. The inference would be that, the Book of Ruth was composed not before the later times of the Jewish monarchy; and this inference is somewhat strengthened by the way in which the writer speaks of the custom which prevailed in former times in Israel Rth_4:7. Other expressions, which the book has in common with the Books of Samuel and Kings, and a certain similarity of narrative, tend to place it upon about the same level of antiquity with those Books.

The Books of the Old Testament, to the contents of which reference seems to be made in the Book of Ruth, are Judges, Leviticus, Deuteronomy, Genesis, 1 and 2 Samuel, and perhaps Job. Ruth is not quoted or referred to in the New Testament, except that the generations from Hezron to David in our Lord’s genealogy seem to be taken from it.

No mystical or allegorical sense can be assigned to the history; but Ruth, the Moabitess, was undoubtedly one of the first-fruits of the ingathering of Gentiles into the Church of Christ, and so an evidence of God’s gracious purpose in Christ, “also to the Gentiles to grant repentance unto life;” and the important evangelical lesson is as plainly taught in her case, as in that of Cornelius, “that God is no respecter of persons, but in every nation he that feareth God, and worketh righteousness, is accepted of Him.” The great doctrine of divine grace is also forcibly taught by the admission of Ruth, the Moabitess, among the ancestry of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Answer 9

Read that book. It really helps to open them sometimes. And, as you were typing, did you not notice that the question is and already has been asked?

I am not being harsh, just wondering. If you are serious, just google it.....
