Naomi
100. If you say that Elimelech converted her there, it is not so. However, she was taught all the household customs, including permissible food and drink. When did she get converted? Later on, when Naomi left. Then she said, "Your people shall be my people, and your Elohim my Elohim" (Rut 1:16). Naomi, WHO CAME OUT from the offspring of Amon, came out at the time of David.
100. וְאִי תֵּימָא דְּגַיְירָהּ אֱלִימֶלֶךְ תַּמָּן. לָא. אֶלָּא כָּל אוֹרְחֵי בֵּיתָא, וּמֵיכְלָא וּמִשְׁתְּיָּא אוֹלִיפַת. אֵימָתַי אִתְגַיְּירַת. לְבָתַר כַּד אַזְלַת בְּנָעֳמִי, כְּדֵין אַמְרַת, עַמֵּךְ עַמִּי וֵאלֹֹהַיִךְ אֱלֹהַי. נַעֲמָה בִּבְנֵי עַמּוֹן בְּיוֹמֵי דְּדָוִד נָפְקָא.
