Taming the Story of Tamar

Speaker:
Date: Wednesday 14 Nov 2018

 

Rupert Ward

The story of Tamar in Genesis is such an odd one to our western ears. It doesn’t seem to fit in the Joseph narrative, and the story itself is so alien to our world. In this sermon Rupert unpacks the cultural context of this story, and comes to a surprising conclusion about what this story means for us today.
Scriptures: Genesis 38
