1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: When she was brought forth, she sent to her father

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: in law, saying, by the man whose these are am

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: I with child? And he said, discern, I pray thee

4
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: whose these are the signet and bracelets and staff Genesis

5
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: thirty eight twenty five. Heavenly Father, as I move closer

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 1: and closer to my destiny, I will not sign away

7
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: my integrity for moments of pleasure. I will stand strong

8
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 1: even when the temptations of monetary pleasure try to lure

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,959
Speaker 1: me off my God given assignment. I will not make

10
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: the mistake ju to made and give away the gifts

11
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: in my life that validate my identity. For I know

12
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 1: that I can only walk in my power when I

13
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: am unapologetically me. So God, to day, I choose to

14
00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: tap into your unlimited power that gives me the ability

15
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: to conquer the mistakes of my past, then step into

16
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 1: the glorious future you have for me. Thank you, Lord

17
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: for redeeming my life and giving me hope for brighter days.

18
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: In Jesus's name, Amen. Listening to these daily prayers strengthens

19
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: your relationship with God. Continue hearing from the Lord by

20
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 1: listening to Today's Bible. In a year brought to you

21
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: by Bible in a Year dot.

22
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: Com Tamorrow and Judah.

23
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 3: Before this story, we learned how Joseph was Israel's favorite

24
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 3: son and was given a code of many colors by

25
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 3: his father. While Joseph was clothed with his father's favor,

26
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 3: the other brothers were clothed with jealousy and hatred towards Joseph. Contemptibly,

27
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 3: they sold Joseph into slavery and lied to their father

28
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 3: about his death. Now we will learn about the fourth brother, Judah,

29
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 3: and his father's descend into dysfunction and God's faithfulness in it.

30
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 3: Inspired by the Book of Genesis.

31
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 4: Hello, I'm pastor Jack Graham with today's episode of the

32
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 4: Bible of a Year podcast. In our previous reading, we

33
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 4: saw how Joseph was the favorite son of Israel, his father,

34
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 4: and how this favoritism and Joseph's on ego and arrogance

35
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 4: had caused hatred to grow in the hearts of his brothers.

36
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 4: The brothers conspired against him, first intending to kill him,

37
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 4: but then selling him into slavery to a traveling band

38
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 4: that carried Joseph off to Egypt. But as to the brothers,

39
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 4: any thought of their troubles going away with Joseph was naive,

40
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 4: and in today's reading we'll hear the story of one

41
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 4: of those brothers, Judah. He was the ringleader in the

42
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 4: evil plan, and now he'll set off to make a

43
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 4: life for himself away from his family. What will unfold

44
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 4: is the story of impatience, deception, and impulsive indulgent actions

45
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 4: that will leave a trail of hurt and death. But

46
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 4: through it all God will continue to work. Despite the

47
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 4: sins of those involved, God will enact his beautiful plan

48
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 4: of redemption. In today's story, you will see God's justice

49
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 4: and judgment come upon those who displease him and disobey him.

50
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 4: It is a powerful reminder that while God is slow

51
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 4: to anger, there are times when he responds swiftly to

52
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 4: those who sin against him. We'll also see God extending

53
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 4: grace and mercy to Judas, so that through him God

54
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 4: can bring into the world the one who will absorb

55
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 4: God's righteous wrath and judgment once and for all. So

56
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 4: now let's listen to this reading from the Book of Genesis.

57
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 3: Judah, the brother who had devised the plan to sell

58
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 3: Joseph into slavery, was determined to make a name for himself.

59
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 3: He turned from his brothers and looked towards the Canaanites.

60
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 3: There he had an Adulamite friend whose name was Hira.

61
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 3: While he dwelt there, he met a daughter of Shua,

62
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 3: a beautiful Canaanite woman. Judah took her for himself, and

63
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 3: the two bore three sons, earth Onan and Sheelah. When

64
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 3: Er was of age, Judah found a wife for him Tamar. However,

65
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 3: he was not a man worthy of a wife or

66
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 3: any sort of blessing, Almost like a disease. Er grew

67
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 3: up with a wickedness in his heart. It plagued him,

68
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 3: and an evil shadow was cast wherever he went. The

69
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 3: Lord had allowed her to experience in early death, leaving

70
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 3: Tamar a widow, Judah looked to his second born son, Onan,

71
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 3: go into your brother's wife, make love and have many offspring,

72
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 3: for such as your duty as a brother in law. However,

73
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,559
Speaker 3: Onan knew in his heart that he would be having

74
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 3: children for his dead brother Earn. Yet the pleasure of

75
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 3: Tamar's bedroom was too enticing for him to pass up.

76
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 3: He had sex with her, but pulled out so they

77
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 3: would not have children. He used her, and it was

78
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,839
Speaker 3: wicked in the sight of the Lord Onan two fell

79
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,239
Speaker 3: to an early death allowed by the hand of God.

80
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 3: Tamar was now twice widowed and without children. She was

81
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 3: forced to remain in her father's house until Judah's third son, Sheella,

82
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 3: was old enough to marry her. However, Shella was fearful

83
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 3: to marry Tamar, for he had seen what happened to

84
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 3: his older brothers. Time had passed and Judah's family was

85
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 3: plagued with yet another death. As the tower of Babel

86
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 3: in ancient times, the hope he had to build his

87
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 3: own caseingdom was slowly crumbling. Judah's wife had passed away

88
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 3: and he was left alone with his son Cella. Judah

89
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 3: went to Tymna with his friend Hira to shear his sheep.

90
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 3: Taking a trip with his friend would comfort him in

91
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 3: his grief. Tamar, still childless, brooded and schemed alone. Sella

92
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 3: was grown up, yet would not marry her. Bitterness and

93
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 3: loneliness overcame her a dangerous pairing. She had heard Judah

94
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 3: was traveling to Tymna to shear his sheep, so she

95
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 3: took her widow's garments off and covered herself with a

96
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,119
Speaker 3: veil and wrapped herself up to look like a prostitute.

97
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: She sat at the entrance of an aeum, attempting to

98
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 3: cross paths with Judah. He saw her from a distance,

99
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 3: having no idea who she really was. At the roadside,

100
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 3: Judah gestured towards her and said, come now, let me

101
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 3: come in to you. What will you give me if

102
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 3: I say yes? Tamar said, and her most seductive and

103
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 3: mysterious voice, I can send you a young goat from

104
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 3: my flock. Judah replied anxiously, I.

105
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 2: See no goats with you.

106
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 3: What will you give me as a deposit until it arrives.

107
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 3: Tamar negotiated, for she knew exactly what she wanted from him.

108
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 3: Give me your signatory, your cord, and your staff, things

109
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 3: that can only be identified as yours. So the two agreed,

110
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 3: and Judah unknowingly laid with his daughter in law for

111
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 3: momentary pleasure. Judah signed away his integrity. Tamar conceived that

112
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 3: day and left with Judah's possessions. Later that night, she

113
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 3: put her widow's clothes back on and awaited Judah's return.

114
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: Judah sent the young goat to where he had met Tamar.

115
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 3: Confused when he didn't find her, he asked the men

116
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 3: of the city where he could find her. Where can

117
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 3: I find the cult prostitute who stood at the gate

118
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 3: the name?

119
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: He asked the men.

120
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 3: There is no colt prostitute at the gate of a Nam,

121
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 3: they said with a slight grin, Knowing he had probably

122
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 3: been tricked. Judah returned empty handed, irked and embarrassed. Three

123
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 3: months had passed and Tamar began to show she was pregnant.

124
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 3: Words spread to Judah. People of the town had assumed

125
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 3: she had been unfaithful and became pregnant apart from his son's.

126
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: Judah's blood boiled at the news. Fuming, he sent men

127
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 3: to retrieve her. Let her be burned, he shouted. Judah

128
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 3: had lost nearly everything, and he would not allow his

129
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 3: name to be tarnished even more. As she was being

130
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 3: brought back out, she sent word back to Judah along

131
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 3: with his signet, ring, chord, and staff. She said, I

132
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 3: am pregnant by whoever these belonged to.

133
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 2: Do you know who owns these?

134
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 3: Judah saw that they were his and conceded that he

135
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: had been tricked. Truly, she is more righteous than I,

136
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 3: Judah said, with a sigh. I did not give scheller

137
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 3: to be her husband. And now I am paying for it.

138
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 3: Judah left Tamar alone after that and allowed her to

139
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 3: live her life in peace. When the time had come,

140
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 3: Tamar had twins, Perez and Zarah. Perez had a scarlet

141
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 3: cord in his hand. Little did Tamar or Judah know

142
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 3: that God would be active in redeeming their family's wickedness, trickery,

143
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 3: and dysfunction from Perez. The promise of Abraham would continue,

144
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 3: for he would be an ancestor of Christ himself.

145
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 4: It was Judah who devised the plan to sell Joseph

146
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 4: into slavery, and as we begin today's story, we see

147
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 4: he has moved on, seemingly unaffected and unrepentant of his

148
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 4: treachery and cruelty towards his own brother, but also towards

149
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 4: his father, Jacob. Judah decides to leave his family and

150
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 4: go find a wife among the Canaanites, and he is

151
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 4: successful in doing so. He finds a wife who gives

152
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 4: him three sons. But just as Abraham and Sarah's struggle

153
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 4: to conceive to not indicate an absence of God's favor

154
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 4: toward them, the arrival of these three sons does not

155
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 4: signal God's acceptance of Judah's choice to leave his community

156
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 4: and marry a foreign woman. This is a very important lesson,

157
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 4: not only in the danger of straying from the place

158
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 4: where God wants you to be. It is also a

159
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 4: reminder that temporary success or achievements are not necessarily a

160
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 4: sign that we are in the will of God. Judah

161
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 4: is intent on growing his family and indeed his own kingdom,

162
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 4: So when his eldest son Er is of age, he

163
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 4: finds a wife for her, a woman named Tamar. We

164
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 4: are told that Err is evil in God's eyes, and

165
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 4: for this reason God takes his life. God's patience of

166
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 4: our sins, God's forbearance of our sins is not always guaranteed,

167
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 4: and as a holy and perfect God who created us,

168
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,559
Speaker 4: our life can be taken by Him in his judgment

169
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 4: at any time. This is what happened to Er, if

170
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 4: we could think honestly about it. It is a fate

171
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 4: we all deserve. We all deserve judgment because of our sin.

172
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 4: How blessed and thankful we are for the grace and

173
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 4: mercy of God that he is slow to anger and

174
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 4: to punish. Judah is still intent on growing his family

175
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 4: and making a name for himself, and he tells his

176
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 4: second son Onan to take Tamar and make babies with her.

177
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 4: But Odan is not interested in starting a family with

178
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 4: this woman. He is interested only in the physical gratification

179
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 4: of sexual pleasure. Onon uses Tamar and deceives her so

180
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 4: that they cannot bear children from his seat, and for

181
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 4: this deception, God once again enacts swift and ultimate judgment,

182
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 4: sending Onan to an early great now. This passage is

183
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 4: a sorted passage in many ways, but it is not

184
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 4: a condemnation of sex for pleasure. This is one of

185
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 4: the beautiful purposes for which God created and gave the

186
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 4: gift of sex between a husband and a wife within

187
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 4: the covenant of marriage. Now Judah is left with only

188
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 4: one son, his youngest Sheilah. Afraid that his son too

189
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 4: will die, he sends Tamar to her father's home. He

190
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 4: promises to let his son Sheilah marry her when he

191
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 4: grows older, but he never does. He simply abandons this

192
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 4: widow in her sad state. When Judah's own wife dies,

193
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 4: Tamar sees an opportunity to secure a future for herself.

194
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 4: Showing poor judgment and even weaker character, Judah sleeps with Tamar,

195
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 4: who was deceptively posing as a prostitute. She goes away

196
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 4: with a baby, conceal her wound, but more importantly, with

197
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 4: exactly what she needs to trap Judah his symbols of authority,

198
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 4: and when her pregnancy is discovered, Judah, who does not

199
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 4: know it was her he slept with, wants to have

200
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 4: her burned for her transgression. But when Tamar produces his

201
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 4: personal items, he knows he's caught and he confesses. Judah

202
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 4: recognized that he did not act as a man of

203
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 4: his word, for he should have had his son Sheilah

204
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 4: Mary Tamar as he had promised. Tamar's life is spared

205
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 4: and she gives birth to twin boys. And out of

206
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 4: this terrible situation, this sordid situation, God would bring good

207
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 4: that nobody could imagine. For one of these sons, Perez,

208
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 4: will be one of our Lord's ancestors. Once again, we

209
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 4: see how God is working always for his good and

210
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 4: for his purposes. That he is faithful even when we

211
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 4: are unfaithful to him, says, cannot and will not be broken,

212
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 4: and Judas life is a powerful reminder of this unchanging,

213
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 4: eternal truth. Dear God, thank you for showing us the

214
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 4: danger of straying from the path of your will. Thank

215
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 4: you God that when we sin, when we do not obey,

216
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 4: when we do not act with integrity and sincerity, you

217
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 4: can even bring good out of our situation because you

218
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: can redeem and restore what is broken and lost. Thank

219
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 4: you for always being a good God, a faithful God,

220
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 4: a holy God. In Christ's name. Amen. Thank you for
