Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which Old Testament woman returned to her people, and did not continue with her elderly mother-in-law?"
...Naomi had decided to return to her homeland: Bethlehem in Judah. After all, her husband had died ten years previously, and now her two sons were dead as well, leaving her with two grieving daughters-in-law. All three had begun the journey towards Bethlehem in Judah when suddenly, Naomi turned and said, “Go, return each of you to her mother's house. May the Lord deal kindly with you, as you have dealt with the dead and with me.” (Ruth 1:8) Orpah and Ruth initially insisted they would continue with her, but Naomi overrode them with valid arguments justifying their return to their families. Ruth set her allegiance to continue with the older woman. Tearfully Orpah decided on returning to her people. Scriptures indicate it was a heart-wrenching decision, and perhaps if Naomi had not released them and insisted that they go, Orpah may have continued. We will never know for sure what that outcome may have been, but what we do know is that in life, sometimes pathways split, and those who have journeyed with you thus far can no longer continue.
