'Sons' in the Bible
Now there came a time of famine while judges were ruling in the land of Israel. A man from Bethlehem of Judah, his wife, and his two sons left to live in the country of Moab.
The man's name was Elimelech, his wife's name was Naomi, and their two sons were named Mahlon and Chilion Ephrathites from Bethlehem of Judah. They journeyed to the country of Moab and lived there for some time.
Then Naomi's husband Elimelech died, and she was left with her two sons.
Each of her sons married Moabite women: one named Orpah and the other named Ruth. After they lived there about ten years,
both Mahlon and Chilion died, leaving Naomi alone with neither her husband nor her two sons.
But Naomi responded, "Go back, my daughters. Why go with me? Are there still sons to be born to me as future husbands for you?
So go on back, my daughters! Be on your way! I'm too old to remarry. If I were to say that I'm hoping for a husband tonight and then also bore sons this very night,
And he will restore your life for you and will support you in your old age, because your daughter-in-law, who loves you and who has borne him, is better for you than seven sons!"
