Scene: Let Her Be Burnt

“And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying, Tamar, thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also behold, she is with child by whoredom, And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt” (Genesis 38:24).

Judah was now head of the tribe and had the right to pass judgment on Tamar. Judah, who was not blameless by any means, was quick to judge Tamar harshly. He wasn’t aware of all the facts and he was ready to say, “Let her be burnt.” How often are we quick to judge without knowing all the details?

Tomorrow we will see what is often referred to as a “plot twist.” Judah will be confronted. He is in for a big surprise!
