Mahlon

From Isbe

MAHLON

ma'-lon (machlon, "invalid"):

Ruth's first husband (Ru 12,5; 4:9,10). In the latter passage is further evidence of the unwillingness to allow a family connection or inheritance to drop (see MAHLAH; MAHLI). Note that David's descent and that of his "Greater Son" come through Ru and Boaz (Ruth 4:22).
