Perverts
Judah sleeps with Tamar (without knowing...), but Tamar asks for a pledge: his seal ring, his bracelet, and his staff. About three months later, someone tells him: Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the harlot, she is pregnant...
And Judah says: Bring her out and let her be burned! (Gen. 38:24 NKJ)That’s crazy! What a perv! When they came to get her, Tamar showed the pledge... Such a perv in the genealogy of Jesus? Now, don’t think this man became one of Jesus' ancestors because he was a perv! Judah repented! Years later, when he went to Egypt with his brothers to buy food from Joseph, he was a different man!
But we have a perv of even greater caliber (!) someone who in a moment of relaxation sets his eyes on a pagan's wife. He does what he does and sleeps with her and the woman becomes pregnant. He does all he can to create the impression that the woman has become pregnant by her husband... How perverse is that!
In the end, "the godly man" has the pagan killed mafia style... like in movies. He makes the pagan take the letter containing his own death sentence to his executioner, to the one who was to execute the sentence... You know him! Yes, the man after the heart of God… the greatest pervert! Is that possible? Well, it is! But David repented! And not only formally! He really repented! See Psalm 51:9-12.
