Genesis: The Beginning
God, Judah, Tamar, Dishonor 2-3-16
Genesis 38
Yesterday, we read about how Joseph and his dreams caused such hatred among his brothers they sold him into slavery. While Joseph is enslaved in Egypt, our reading shifts our focus off from Joseph and onto Judah. We travel to Adullam where we watch the unrolling life choices of Judah, his sons, and his daughter-in-law, Tamar. The life stories in Chapters 37-38 reveal a moral contrast between Joseph and Judah.
