last three :- 40a wife of Mahon O - P - H [5 letters] 49a type of garnet C-N -A -O - STONE [8&6] 32d knot or protuberance on a tree -- N -- R [4] help appreciated.
Greavsie is spot on. But if you read from Ruth 1:2 to Ruth 1:4 it is fairly ambiguous as Mahlon is mentioned first, then Chillion, but the wives are listed as Orpah first and then Ruth!
many thanks to all, for the time they have taken to get the correct answers for me, as I am hasty and wanted to post before going to work yesterday I went with Orpah and Knar.
will probably want help with the Sundays.
best regards Dee
