Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died,.... According to Josephus x, after he had dwelt in the land ten years, and had married his two sons to Moabitish women; but, as Alshech observes, the text shows that while he was living they were not married to them, but after his death; and it is said of them only that they dwelt there about ten years; so that it is most probable that their father died quickly after he came into the land of Moab: and she was left, and her two sons; in a strange land, she without a husband, and they without a father.
x Ut supra. (Antiqu. l. 5. c. 9. sect. 1.)
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ruth 1:3. Elimelech - died — Probably a short time after his arrival in Moab.
