Jun 11 at 9:53 comment added Al Berko Thank you, I rewrote it a bit. I explicitly pointed out that conversion did not exist in Biblical times so the Book of Ruth can not be seen through this lens. So asking "When did she convert" is meaningless. DId you notice that conversion is not mentioned in the Bible?

Jun 11 at 9:29 comment added Edward B I rarely downvote an answer but I feel compelled to here. Not only does this add nothing useful to the answers already given it appears driven by an agenda as shown by the statement "While it is customary to cite sources, all rabbinic sources from the Talmud onward are inherently biased by later interpretations and fail to offer a coherent historical context." This "answer" does not address the question "At what point, chronologically, did she in fact convert?"
