Boaz responded: she has a good teacher.⁴⁶Ruth Rabbah, 4.9 That is to say, her mother- in-law Naomi who is very pious taught her much and she moved away from the ways of the Moabites. Therefore, it says in the verse, “she came back with Naomi from the country of Moab” [2:6]. That is to say, she removed herself from the deeds that were done in the land of Moab. She returned with Naomi who taught her.

Who returned with Naomi. The accent is at the beginning, under the shin, because it is the past tense, and not the present tense [of the verb].¹⁰See Rashi in Bereishis 29:6.
