Contextual Overview

13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and the Lord made her with child and she gave birth to a son. 14 And the women said to Naomi, A blessing on the Lord, who has not let you be this day without a near relation, and may his name be great in Israel. 15 He will be a giver of new life to you, and your comforter when you are old, for your daughter-in-law, who, in her love for you, is better than seven sons, has given birth to him. 16 And Naomi took the child and put her arms round it, and she took care of it. 17 And the women who were her neighbours gave it a name, saying, Naomi has a child; and they gave him the name of Obed: he is the father of Jesse, the father of David. 18 Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron; 19 And Hezron became the father of Ram, and Ram became the father of Amminadab; 20 And Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon became the father of Salmon; 21 And Salmon became the father of Boaz, and Boaz became the father of Obed; 22 And Obed became the father of Jesse, and Jesse became the father of David.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Hezron begat Ram,.... Called Aram by the Septuagint, and so in Matthew 1:3,

and Ram begat Amminadab; in whose name there is no variation, neither in the book of Chronicles nor in the Evangelists; both these, as well as the next, were born in Egypt.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ruth 4:19. Hezron begat Ram — He is called Aram here by the Septuagint, and also by St. Matthew, Matthew 1:3.
