Contextual Overview
6 Then Naomi got ready to return from the land of Moab with her daughters-in-law. She had heard in the land of Moab that the Lord had brought food to His people. 7 So she left with her two daughters-in-law and went on the way toward the land of Judah. 8 But Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, "Go, each one of you return to your own mother's house. May the Lord show kindness to you, as you have done with the dead and with me. 9 May the Lord help you to find a home, each in the family of her husband." Then she kissed them, and they cried in loud voices. 10 They said to her, "No, we will return with you to your people." 11 But Naomi said, "Return to your people, my daughters. Why should you go with me? Do I have more sons within me, who could become your husbands? 12 Return, my daughters. Go. For I am too old to have a husband. If I had hope, if I should have a husband tonight and give birth to sons, 13 would you wait until they were grown? Would you not marry until then? No, my daughters. It is harder for me than for you. For the hand of the Lord is against me." 14 Then they cried again in loud voices. Orpah kissed her mother-in-law. But Ruth held on to her. 15 Naomi said, "See, your sister-in-law has returned to her people and her gods. Return after your sister-in-law."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Wherefore she went forth out of the place where she was,.... What part of Moab she had dwelt in, and now removed from, is not said; it is called the country or field of Moab, she returned from; hence some have thought, that she and her husband, and her sons, did not live in any of the cities of Moab, but in a field; either because the Moabites would not suffer them to dwell in their cities, only allowed them to pitch their tents in their fields; or they chose to dwell there, that they might as much as possible avoid conversation with them, and be preserved from their idolatry, and other corruptions:
and her two daughters in law with her; who, out of respect to her, accompanied her some part of the way, as relations and friends usually did:
and they went on the way to return unto the land of Judah; they went along with her to the border of the land of Judah, in her return thither; for returning can only be said of her with any propriety, because her two daughters had never been there; that was not the country from whence they came, and therefore could not be said to return thither.
