Go on with the story and tell us all about ruth okay so ruth is a woman of great importance in the bible
she is known for her loyalty and she had full faith in god in her heart
ruth lived in a little village called maob and she was a young girl when she got married to a man
named mahalon ma lon and his family had moved to maub because their village had been attacked
by a mage of famine as soon as marlon's family reached maoba he died because of a severe illness
and left behind his wife naomi with two of their children milan and chilean when malone grew up
he was married to ruth while chilean was married to oprah ten years after they got married both
Mahlon and chilean died leaving behind naomi ruth and oprah all alone with no one left
alive in her life naomi decided to go to bethlehem she said to her daughters-in-law
there's no one left in my family anymore apart from the two of you i have decided to go to
bethlehem two of you can leave me and go wherever you wanna go you can go back to your own families
if that makes you happy hearing this oprah decided to go back to her family she knew if she went
to bethlehem with naomi her life would be even more difficult but to naomi's surprise ruth said
don't ever ask me to leave where you go i go where you stay i will stay with you your friends
will be my friends and your god will be my god naomi was happy in her heart of hearts to hear
this the journey to bethlehem was a long and a difficult one she couldn't have made it alone
also she loved ruth for her clean and pure heart so oprah left for her home and naomi and ruth left
together for bethlehem to live the rest of their lives shortly after arriving ruth met a rich land
owner in bethlehem named boaz she started working in his field to provide for herself and naomi
her dedication and loyalty towards her work really impressed boaz and he wanted to marry her
boaz and ruth soon got married and naomi was very happy for them and blessed them with all her heart
eventually naomi gave birth to a son and they named him obed obed is the grandfather of david
and thus is named as one of the ancestors of jesus in the gospel of matthew and in the gospel of
luke so this is the story of ruth who was faithful not only to god but also to naomi when she was all
alone she was a loyal servant of god and god blessed her for her loyal and faithful virtues
this makes ruth one of the most remarkable women of the bible wow that was a wonderful story holy
it was so sweet of ruth not to leave naomi alone yes that is why she is known to be the most loyal
and the most faithful woman in the bible now it is time for today's question
what was the name of the rich landowner where ruth began to work his name was
the holy tales today i'll be telling you the story of rebecca
rebecca wow that's such a beautiful name i wish my name was rebecca
but your name is cute too freckles that it is all right then let us begin listening to the
story of rebecca the woman who relied on her own strength instead of trusting the lord completely
rebecca was the young wife of isaac and the mother of jacob and esau she was the daughter of bethel
when isaac was a young boy his father abraham was looking for a bride for isaac
so abraham sent one of his servants to the city of nahar to find a suitable bride for isaac
the servant looked everywhere in the city but did not find one he was tired and exhausted so he sat
near the well to rest while he rested he prayed to god that the next young woman who came to the well
and gave him water to drink will be the girl chosen as isaac's bride as he prayed rebecca came
to the well to get some water with a jar on her shoulder she saw the servant tired and exhausted
so she offered him and his camel some water to drink and some food to eat immediately
the servant knew that rebecca was the girl who god had sent to be isaac's wife the servant brought
rebecca to abraham and soon isaac and rebecca got married years went by but rebecca and isaac
had no children isaac prayed to god day in and day out without losing hope
soon god heard his prayers and blessed rebecca with twins jacob and esau jacob and esau were
the first twins mentioned in the bible even before they were born rebecca could feel the both of them
fighting inside her womb she prayed to god asking him the reason for the two brothers fighting all
the time to this god said rebecca you are going to give birth to two nations they are both inside
you right now and that's why they are at odds with one another one shall be stronger than the other
the older will serve the younger soon it was time for rebecca to give birth esau was born first who
grew up to become isaac's favorite son while jacob was rebecca's in those days the practice was that
the firstborn was always entitled to receive birthright and since esau was born first he
would have inherited the birthright this saddened rebecca she loved jacob and wanted him to have it
it was jacob who tricked his own brother into selling him his birthright for a bowl of stew
later when isaac grew old and he was on his deathbed and could not see rebecca helped jacob
to deceive isaac into blessing him instead of esau
she used goat skins on jacob's hands to imitate esau's hairy arms
years later a lot of things happened and esau was finally able to forgive jacob
when rebecca died she was buried in the family tomb a cave near mamor in canaan which was
also the resting place of abraham sarah and isaac later jacob was also buried in the same tomb that
was an amazing story holy thank you for telling us all about rebecca i'm glad you enjoyed it tubby
the holy tales i was thinking of telling you the story of queen esther we all remember queen
esther don't we yes yes i remember her so do i um yes i think i do a little too
all right let us all get together and hear the story of queen esther who was a remarkable woman
and a great example of faith and courage wow girl power yay esther was a beautiful young woman and
was raised by a man called mordecai who had taken her as his own daughter after both her parents had
died esther was chosen to be the queen of king serpsis she was extremely beautiful and a very
elegant woman she was taken to the king's court and the king immediately fell in love with her
however the king was unaware of the fact that esther was actually a jewish woman mordechai
had asked her to keep her family background and nationality a secret from the king esther
did as she was told all of the jews who lived in israel were all driven out of their country
almost 70 years earlier and all of them were exiled in persia esther's stepfather
mordecai was a man of great dignity and he refused to bow down to haman who was a very high official
and an advisor to the king haman was a very arrogant man he could not take mordechai's
disrespect towards him and so he plotted against him to get him removed from the court however
esther soon found out about heyman's plan she got to know that heyman was planning to kill mordecai
and she needed to do something about it but she feared going up to the king in his courtroom
because in those days whoever entered the king's throne room without permission was put to death
so esther thought about another plan to confront the king she prayed and fasted for three long days
and finally arranged for a banquet for the king and haman alone king xerxes and haman
came for the elaborate banquet and the king was extremely pleased with her arrangements
queen esther then gathered the courage and confessed all about her ancestry to her husband
and told him all about her being a jew king xerxes loved his queen very much he believed queen esther
and was persuaded by her love for him he decided not to punish her then esther said if i have been
able to please the king and if he regards me with favor then let him write an order ruling
the death penalty of haman who is planning to destroy the jews in the king's province
king xerxes agreed to his wife and immediately ordered that haman must be hanged in the same
gallows which he had prepared for mordecai wow that was such a clever move by queen esther
to save her father and her people yes she was indeed a smart and wise woman but most importantly
it was her faith in god which brought this wisdom upon her now who wants to answer today's question
