Bible Lives: Tamar
Forgotten by Judah. Remembered by God.
“She hath been more righteous than I.”GENESIS 38:26
Twice widowed. Sent away with a promise nobody meant to keep. Tamar was forgotten by the family that was supposed to protect her, until she made sure she couldn’t be ignored. Her story is hard, honest and surprising, and it ends in the family tree of Jesus.
Before you begin
Genesis 38 deals with injustice and adult themes. It’s told here with care and without graphic detail. Parents of young children may want to walk through it first.
