Deuteronomy 23:3 [2] Ruth, one of the ancestors of Jesus, was a Moabitess, but she essentially became an Israelite (RUT 1:16) and married an Israelite (Boaz). Moreover, the rabbis taught that DEU 23:3 applied only to Ammonite and Moabite men. This teaching was summarized by what became a common saying: "An Ammonite [is forbidden], but not an Ammonitess; a Moabite, but not a Moabitess!" (as quoted from the Talmud).
