Deuteronomy 23:3
Ammonite These nations were subjected for their impiety, wickedness, and enmity to Israel (Deut 23:4 and Deut 23:5), to peculiar disgrace; and on this account were not permitted to hold any office among the Israelites. This did not, however, disqualify them from becoming proselytes; for Ruth, who was a Moabitess, was married to Boaz, and became one of the progenitors of our Lord. Ruth 4:6, Ruth 4:10-22; Neh 4:3, Neh 4:7, Neh 13:1-2, Neh 13:23; Isa 56:3
