Boaz finds the relative, and brings 10 elders as witnesses. He offers the man Naomi's land and the guy seems like he's willing to take the deal, but Boaz also explains that if he takes the land, he will have to marry Ruth and have a child with her that would be raised as Ruth's first husband's.

Ruth is a great (more than 1) grandmother to Jesus!
