His life, as recorded in the Book of Genesis, provides insight into the customs and familial dynamics of the patriarchal period.<br><br><b>Marriage to Shua's Daughter</b><br><br>Judah's first marriage is recorded in <a href="/genesis/38.htm">Genesis 38:1-2</a>: "At that time, Judah left his brothers and settled near a man named Hirah, an Adullamite. There Judah saw the daughter of a Canaanite man named Shua, and he took her as a wife and slept with her." This union with a Canaanite woman, whose name is not mentioned, reflects a departure from the practice of marrying within the Hebrew lineage, as seen in the marriages of his forefathers. The marriage produced three sons: Er, Onan, and Shelah.<br><br><b>The Deaths of Er and Onan</b><br><br>Judah's family life was marked by tragedy and moral complexity. His firstborn, Er, "was wicked in the sight of the LORD, so the LORD put him to death" (<a href="/genesis/38-7.htm">Genesis 38:7</a>). Following Er's death, Judah instructed his second son, Onan, to fulfill the levirate marriage duty by marrying Er's widow, Tamar, to produce offspring for his deceased brother. Onan's refusal to comply with this duty led to his own death by divine judgment: "What he did was wicked in the sight of the LORD, so He put Onan to death as well" (<a href="/genesis/38-10.htm">Genesis 38:10</a>).<br><br><b>Judah and Tamar</b><br><br>After the deaths of his first two sons, Judah hesitated to give his youngest son, Shelah, to Tamar, fearing for his life. This led to Tamar's bold and unconventional action to secure her place in the family lineage. Disguising herself as a prostitute, she seduced Judah, resulting in the birth of twins, Perez and Zerah. This incident is pivotal, as Perez becomes an ancestor of King David and the Messiah, underscoring God's sovereignty in using flawed human actions to fulfill divine purposes.<br><br><b>Marriage to a Second Wife</b><br><br>While the biblical text does not explicitly mention Judah taking a second wife, the narrative implies that after the death of his first wife, Judah's life continued with significant events, including his eventual reconciliation with his family and his role in the preservation of the Israelites during the famine in Egypt. The focus on Judah's descendants and his leadership role among his brothers suggests a life marked by growth and redemption.<br><br>Judah's account is a testament to the complexities of human relationships and the overarching providence of God in the unfolding of redemptive history. His lineage, despite its imperfections, becomes a channel of blessing for all nations through the coming of the Messiah.<a name="nav" id="nav"></a><div class="vheading2">Nave's Topical
