The Great Commission – A Study of Matthew
Tamar
• Matthew
1:3
Who is Tamar?
Why is it unusual for her to be listed in the genealogy of
Jesus?
·
Genesis
38
Who is Er?
What happened to him?
Then what happened to Tamar?
After Onan died what did Judah promise Tamar?
Did Judah honor that promise?
What did Tamar do?
Why would she do that?
What was Judah’s response when he found out that Tamar was
pregnant?
What did Judah say when the pledge items were taken to him?
Why would Tamar have been considered more righteous?
·
Deuteronomy
25:5-10
What does this say about what Onan should have done?
What do you think of what the woman was to do to the brother
who would not fulfill his obligation?
·
Leviticus
18:15 and Leviticus 20:12
What does this say about what Tamar did?
·
Romans 5:18-21
What did Adam’s sin bring?
What does Christ’s act of righteousness do?
Why was the law given?
What do you think it means that there is the relationship
between Tamar and Judah in Jesus line?
How does this illustrate God’s wonderful kindness?
Where does Matthew including Tamar in the ancestry of Jesus
lead us in understanding Jesus?
So, what component of the Great Commission does this
illustrate?
1)
Jesus
2)
All authority in heaven and on earth
3)
Go and make disciples
4)
Baptize them
5)
Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit
6)
Teaching them to obey everything
7)
I am with you always
8)
All Nations
9)
Obey Commandments
Next, back to Matthew 1:4
