Summary

This passage of scripture is filled with more lies, deceit, and disobedience. Judah’s motives of sending his 2nd and 3rd born sons to Tamar after Er’s, Judah’s 1st born, death was to continue the bloodline as God desired. Then Judah’s fear of losing another son, led to his disobedience of not sending additional sons and telling Tamar to return to her father’s house as a widow. The passage becomes even more twisted as both Judah and Tamar lie and deceive ultimately resulting in Tamar’s conception of Judah’s child. What were the events that led to this distorted situation being revealed? What are your thoughts regarding this passage? Have you ever found yourself in a situation where lies or deceit entangled you or someone you love? Take time to fervently pray for circumstances where you, a friend or loved one, seem trapped in lies and deceit.
