Day 82: Genesis 38: Tamar in the Line of Christ: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional

In this episode, Rachael explores the misunderstood and often misrepresented story of Tamar from Genesis 38. While Tamar is often remembered only for disguising herself as a prostitute, a closer look reveals a woman who was brave, strategic, and determined to do what was right in a system that failed her at every turn. Tamar’s bold actions ultimately preserved the family line of Judah—a lineage that would lead directly to Jesus. Rachael unpacks the cultural and historical context of Tamar’s decisions and shows how God redeemed her story, reminding us that no matter how messy our lives feel, God can work through the dysfunction. Tamar’s story isn’t just about scandal—it’s about grace, redemption, and legacy.
