The Family of Abraham: Part 28—Judah and Tamar
April 22, 2019
Alastair Roberts
Today, I discuss Genesis 38 and the story of Judah and Tamar.
Within my discussion, I mention the following article by Jeffrey Geoghegan on sheepshearing: https://poj.peeters-leuven.be/content.php?url=article&id=3189028&journal_code=BIB. I also mention Stewart Fleming's stimulating exploration of connections between the Tamar and Ruth stories: https://famousfox.org/2017/07/22/the-tamar-and-ruth-narratives-considered-intertextually/.
