Nahshon was the father of Salmon, and Salmon was the father of Boaz.

Now Naomi had a relative on her husband’s side, a prominent man of noble character from the clan of Elimelech, whose name was Boaz.

Then Boaz said to Ruth, “Listen, my daughter. Do not go and glean in another field, and do not go away from this place, but stay here close to my servant girls.

Then her mother-in-law asked her, “Where did you glean today, and where did you work? Blessed be the man who noticed you.”So she told her mother-in-law where she had worked. “The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz,” she said.

Meanwhile, Boaz went to the gate and sat down there. Soon the kinsman-redeemer of whom he had spoken came along, and Boaz said, “Come over here, my friend, and sit down.” So he went over and sat down.
