Nothing like that is said of Orpah in the bible. Naomi and Ruth both loved her. Read it in Ruth 1 and see that I’m right.

Sorry you don’t have the complete Tanukah and Talmud.
There’s a reason this is posted in the Jewish group, in that the entire text is needed for an actual understanding of the events. You’re hamstrung with only about 1/5 of the actual Word of G-d.
If you’d like wikipedia has much the same information:

I’m guessing that Orpah’s parents never read the Talmud, because most of what you said isn’t in the Bible.

You are correct. Where did the fairy tale come from?

Yeah; I heard her mother was going for “Orpah”, a Bible name, but there was a mis-spelling or something. “Laquisha” is much easier; should-a just gone with that.

I had a relative who was a substitute teacher in a CT inner city. She took attendance and came upon the name. La-A.She mispronounced several time, much to the delight of the 5th graders. The correct pronunciation?
La DASH A.
True story.

Orpah was a Moabite, not a Philisitine.
No other mention of Orpah is found in the Bible..........

I remember hearing Oprah say - many, many years ago on the Johnny Carson show - that she was named “Orpah”, but whoever filled out her birth certificate spelled it wrong, so she was legally “Oprah”.
To: MayflowerMadam
this is just oprahfication aka psychobabble to confuse low information voters.
see bill Clinton’s oprahfication.

Abishai, himself, killed Orpah with a spindle. Ruth and Orpah were sisters, or at least sisters-in-law. Ruth was David's great-grandmother. In order for adult David's General Abishai to kill Orpah, she would have had to have been ancient................

I heard she was named Opera but the pronunciation was wrong.

Where did you get your information? Further, no son of Orpah’s would be a contemporary of David, as there were several generations between Ruth and David (I’d have to check, but I think it was four generations between). Please cite your sources. This doesn’t add up.
