In the narrative (Rth 1:2; Rth 1:5) Mahlon is mentioned first, but in his formal address to the elders in the gate (Rth 4:9), Boaz says Chilion and Mahlon.&#8217; Like his brother, Mahlon died in the land of Moab without offspring, which in the Targum on Ruth (Rth 1:5) is explained to have been a judgment for their transgression of the law in marrying a Moabitess. In the Targum on 1Ch 4:22, Mahlon is identified with Joash, possibly on account of the double meaning of the Hebrew word which follows, and which signifies both had dominion&#8217; and married.&#8217;<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<h2>Mahlon<\/h2>\n<p>sickly, the elder of Elimelech the Bethlehemite&#8217;s two sons by Naomi.

His name is derived from Mahol, infirmity. Perhaps the father&#8217;s name, and the whole family were figurative. In the history of this house, we read that in the days when the Judges ruled, there was a famine in the land. The Book of the Judges, at the close, saith, that in those days, &#8220;there was no king in Israel, every man did that which was right in his own eyes.&#8221; (Jdg 21:25) And this we may be sure, was bad enough. In such seasons there is always a famine, not perhaps of bread and water, but a famine to the soul in not hearing the word of the Lord. (Amo 8:11) In this state this house in Israel left Bethlehem-Judah, the land of bread, and the bread of JEHUDAH, (for so Bethlehem-Judah means) and went to sojourn in Moab. In other words, left the Lord to seek the world in Moab. To this history correspond the names. Elimelech signifies, my God, a king. Naomi, my pleasant one; now called Marah, bitterness; and Mahlon and Chillon, sickness and consumption.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: The Poor Mans Concordance and Dictionary to the Sacred Scriptures<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<h2>Mahlon<\/h2>\n<p>malon (, mahlon, invalid): Ruth&#8217;s first husband (Ruth 12, 5; Rth 4:9, Rth 4:10).
