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 Amminadab begat Nahshon,.... The prince of the tribe of Judah, as the Targum adds; and so he was when the Israelites were come out of Egypt, and were in the wilderness at the time of the dedication of the altar, Numbers 7:12 called Nahsson, Matthew 1:4, and Nahshon begat Salmon; or, as in the Hebrew text, Salmah, and in 1 Chronicles 2:11, Salma; and yet in the verse following Salmon, as we read it.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ruth 4:20. Amminadab begat Nahshon — The Targum adds, "And Nahshon was chief of the house of his father in the tribe of Judah."
Nahshon begat Salmon — In the Hebrew it is שלמה Salmah, which Houbigant thinks was an error of an ancient scribe, before any final letters were acknowledged in the Hebrew alphabet: for then the word would be written שלמון Salmon, which a scribe, after final letters were admitted, might mistake for שלמה Salmah, and so write it, instead of שלמון Salmon, the ו vau and ן final nun in conjunction (ון) bearing some resemblance to .
The Targum calls him "Salmah the Just; he was the Salmah of Beth-lehem and Netopha, whose sons abolished the watches which Jeroboam set over the highways; and their works and the works of their father were good in Netopha."
