She was the daughter-in-law of Judah, one of the twelve sons of Jacob. Her account is found in Genesis 38, where she is widowed twice and eventually disguises herself to secure her rights and lineage through Judah. This act of determination and courage ensured her place in the lineage of King David and ultimately Jesus Christ. In the cultural context of ancient Israel, lineage and inheritance were crucial, and Tamar's actions highlight the importance of preserving family lines.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Hebrew origin <a href="/hebrew/8559.htm">Tamar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Tamar, an Isr. woman<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Tamar (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 2283: Θαμάρ</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Θαμάρ</span></span> (<span class="manuref">Treg.</span> <span class="greek2">Θαμάρ</span>), <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="hebrew">טָמָר</span> (i. e. palm-tree)), <span class="accented">Tamar,</span> proper name of a woman, the daughter-in-law of Judah, son of the patriarch Jacob (<a href="/interlinear/genesis/38-6.htm">Genesis 38:6</a>): <a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-3.htm">Matthew 1:3</a>.<FOOTNOTE:1> <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Tamar<p>Of Hebrew origin (<a href="/hebrew/8559.htm">Tamar</a>);
