“Now Judah acquired a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.”
“And once more she conceived and gave birth to a son and said, “This time I will praise the LORD.” So she named him Judah. Then Leah stopped having children.”
“After a long time Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had finished mourning, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah.”
“But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; so the LORD put him to death.”
“The sons of Leah were Reuben the firstborn of Jacob, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.”
“Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father’s house until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “He may die too, like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s house.”
“Then Judah said to Onan, “Sleep with your brother’s wife. Perform your duty as her brother-in-law and raise up offspring for your brother.””
“There Judah saw the daughter of a Canaanite man named Shua, and he took her as a wife and slept with her.”
“About that time, Judah left his brothers and settled near a man named Hirah, an Adullamite.”
“Then Judah said to his brothers, “What profit will we gain if we kill our brother and cover up his blood?”
