Orpah: Gen 31:28, Gen 31:55; Kg1 19:20; Mat 10:37, Mat 19:22; Mar 10:21, Mar 10:22; Ti2 4:10 but Ruth: The LXX add, και επεστρεψεν εις τον λαον αυτης, "and returned to her own people." The Vulgate, Syriac, and Arabic are to the same purpose. It seems a very natural addition, and agrees with the assertion in the next verse; and is accordingly adopted by Houbigant as a part of the text. Deu 4:4, Deu 10:20; Pro 17:17, Pro 18:24; Isa 14:1; Zac 8:23; Mat 16:24; Joh 6:66-69; Act 17:34; Heb 10:39 Ruth 1:15
