Book of Ruth...

Okay I was reading my Bible...I was actually reading something other than the required reading...okay but any ways...i was reading the story of Ruth...okay I guess I never really knew the story...I guess I've heard about her name and all and knew she married Boaz but that was about it...so how exactly does Naomi figure in...I guess I thought she was the main one and ended up marring Boaz...but I guess not...so Naomi was the oldest one...so Boaz and Ruth and I guess Naomi were all related...and he still maried Ruth...Well I guess I didn't know there was the Bible character Naomi...Okay so what was the point in Naomi sending Ruth to uncover his feet and lie with him...they weren't even married yet...wouldn't that have been wrong...is that what she was trying to get at...so that would happen and he'd have to marry her...so what did it trigger that caused Boaz to go and talk to the other leaders...and I don't exactly get what he was trying to accomplish with talking to them...if he wanted to marry Ruth well then go ahead...he's an adult...okay so did he marry Ruth or Naomi...who had Obed...I thought it was Ruth but then it say Naomi took the kid and raised him...and the people said Naomi has a son...so who did Boaz marry...or did he get two wives for the 'price of one'...okay yeah...it was rather a cool and interesting story...this was actually the first time I had ever read that book of the Bible...
