Ruth is called “the Moabite.” The text points out several times that she is not only a foreigner, but a Moabite. But by the end, she has been grafted into Israel and is no longer distinguished by her heritage. Her heritage is now as an Israelite, demonstrated by the genealogy at the end of the book. Not only would she bear children who would be fully grafted-in Israelites, her descendants would include King David, as well as a far Greater King still.
