BBE summary for : Genesis 38
Summary: Genesis chapter 38 narrates the story of Judah and Tamar, which serves to highlight themes of morality, justice, and God's providence. The chapter begins with Judah separating from his brothers and marrying a Canaanite woman, Shua. They have three sons: Er, Onan, and Shelah. Er, the firstborn, is wicked in the sight of the Lord and is struck dead, prompting Judah to instruct Onan to fulfill the duty of a levirate marriage by producing offspring for his deceased brother. However, Onan disobeys, leading to his own death. Judah then dismisses Tamar, his daughter-in-law, back to her father's house, believing she is cursed. After the death of Judah's wife, he encounters Tamar, who disguises herself as a prostitute, seeking to secure her rights and lineage. Unbeknownst to Judah, he becomes involved with her, resulting in the conception of twins, Perez and Zerah. The chapter concludes by revealing Tamar's integrity and Judah's acknowledgment of her righteousness. This narrative emphasizes the themes of justice, faithful perseverance, and God's inclusion of unexpected individuals in His plan, furthering the lineage of Israel.
