Tamar (Genesis 38)
She was denied justice and takes bold action.
Judah says, “She is more righteous than I.”

Ruth is vulnerable after loss.
Boaz becomes not just a legal redeemer—but a restorer of dignity.

Gomer is unfaithful and objectified.
Hosea’s relentless love mirrors God’s—pursuing the unfaithful with compassion and hope.

She had five marriages and was likely discarded or widowed.
Jesus sees past her shame, honors her, and sends her as a witness.

Take it Deeper Questions:
Have you ever felt like someone treated you as if you didn’t matter—like you were expendable? What was that like for you?
Have you ever seen someone else treated that way? How did it affect them—and you?
How does loving your neighbor as yourself and “The Golden Rule” (Matt 7:12) impact you? How about when it’s inconvenient?
When life gets overwhelming, how do you tend to treat people around you--pull away, control things, go quiet, lash out, or something else? What do you think is behind that?
Bible Reading:
Matthew 5-7
Ruth 1-2
