TAMAR

(=palmier).

1. Cananéenne qui épousa successivement deux fils de Juda, Er et Onan, et qui eut deux enfants de Juda lui-même, Pérets et Zérach (Ge 38, Ru 4:12,1Ch 2:4). Sans doute il faut chercher dans ces relations individuelles une signification ethnique (voir ce mot) : explication de l'existence ultérieure de clans étrangers dans la tribu de Juda.

2. Fille de David et de Maaca ; outragée par son demi-frère Amnon, elle fut vengée par son frère Absalom (2Sa 13, cf. 1Ch 3:9).

3. Fille d'Absalom (2Sa 14:27).

4. Nom de ville ; voir ThamAr.

    • Genèse 38

      1 It happened at that time, that Judah went down from his brothers, and visited a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
      2 Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua. He took her, and went in to her.
      3 She conceived, and bore a son; and he named him Er.
      4 She conceived again, and bore a son; and she named him Onan.
      5 She yet again bore a son, and named him Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.
      6 Judah took a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
      7 Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of Yahweh. Yahweh killed him.
      8 Judah said to Onan, "Go in to your brother's wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother to her, and raise up seed to your brother."
      9 Onan knew that the seed wouldn't be his; and it happened, when he went in to his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest he should give seed to his brother.
      10 The thing which he did was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and he killed him also.
      11 Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, "Remain a widow in your father's house, until Shelah, my son, is grown up"; for he said, "Lest he also die, like his brothers." Tamar went and lived in her father's house.
      12 After many days, Shua's daughter, the wife of Judah, died. Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheepshearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah, the Adullamite.
      13 It was told Tamar, saying, "Behold, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep."
      14 She took off of her the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gate of Enaim, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she wasn't given to him as a wife.
      15 When Judah saw her, he thought that she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face.
      16 He turned to her by the way, and said, "Please come, let me come in to you," for he didn't know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, "What will you give me, that you may come in to me?"
      17 He said, "I will send you a young goat from the flock." She said, "Will you give me a pledge, until you send it?"
      18 He said, "What pledge will I give you?" She said, "Your signet and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand." He gave them to her, and came in to her, and she conceived by him.
      19 She arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
      20 Judah sent the young goat by the hand of his friend, the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand, but he didn't find her.
      21 Then he asked the men of her place, saying, "Where is the prostitute, that was at Enaim by the road?" They said, "There has been no prostitute here."
      22 He returned to Judah, and said, "I haven't found her; and also the men of the place said, 'There has been no prostitute here.'"
      23 Judah said, "Let her keep it, lest we be shamed. Behold, I sent this young goat, and you haven't found her."
      24 It happened about three months later, that it was told Judah, saying, "Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the prostitute; and moreover, behold, she is with child by prostitution." Judah said, "Bring her out, and let her be burnt."
      25 When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, "By the man, whose these are, I am with child." She also said, "Please discern whose are these--the signet, and the cords, and the staff."
      26 Judah acknowledged them, and said, "She is more righteous than I, because I didn't give her to Shelah, my son." He knew her again no more.
      27 It happened in the time of her travail, that behold, twins were in her womb.
      28 When she travailed, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, "This came out first."
      29 It happened, as he drew back his hand, that behold, his brother came out, and she said, "Why have you made a breach for yourself?" Therefore his name was called Perez.
      30 Afterward his brother came out, that had the scarlet thread on his hand, and his name was called Zerah.

      Ruth 4

      12 Let your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the seed which Yahweh shall give you of this young woman."

      2 Samuel 13

      1 It happened after this, that Absalom the son of David had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
      2 Amnon was so troubled that he fell sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.
      3 But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother; and Jonadab was a very subtle man.
      4 He said to him, "Why, son of the king, are you so sad from day to day? Won't you tell me?" Amnon said to him, "I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister."
      5 Jonadab said to him, "Lay down on your bed, and pretend to be sick. When your father comes to see you, tell him, 'Please let my sister Tamar come and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it from her hand.'"
      6 So Amnon lay down and faked being sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, "Please let my sister Tamar come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand."
      7 Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, "Go now to your brother Amnon's house, and prepare food for him."
      8 So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was laid down. She took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.
      9 She took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. Amnon said, "Have all men leave me." Every man went out from him.
      10 Amnon said to Tamar, "Bring the food into the room, that I may eat from your hand." Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the room to Amnon her brother.
      11 When she had brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her, and said to her, "Come, lie with me, my sister!"
      12 She answered him, "No, my brother, do not force me! For no such thing ought to be done in Israel. Don't you do this folly.
      13 I, where would I carry my shame? And as for you, you will be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you."
      14 However he would not listen to her voice; but being stronger than she, he forced her, and lay with her.
      15 Then Amnon hated her with exceeding great hatred; for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. Amnon said to her, "Arise, be gone!"
      16 She said to him, "Not so, because this great wrong in sending me away is worse than the other that you did to me!" But he would not listen to her.
      17 Then he called his servant who ministered to him, and said, "Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her."
      18 She had a garment of various colors on her; for with such robes were the king's daughters who were virgins dressed. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.
      19 Tamar put ashes on her head, and tore her garment of various colors that was on her; and she laid her hand on her head, and went her way, crying aloud as she went.
      20 Absalom her brother said to her, "Has Amnon your brother been with you? But now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother. Don't take this thing to heart." So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.
      21 But when king David heard of all these things, he was very angry.
      22 Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.
      23 It happened after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal Hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons.
      24 Absalom came to the king, and said, "See now, your servant has sheepshearers. Please let the king and his servants go with your servant."
      25 The king said to Absalom, "No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to you." He pressed him; however he would not go, but blessed him.
      26 Then Absalom said, "If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us." The king said to him, "Why should he go with you?"
      27 But Absalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.
      28 Absalom commanded his servants, saying, "Mark now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine; and when I tell you, 'Strike Amnon,' then kill him. Don't be afraid. Haven't I commanded you? Be courageous, and be valiant!"
      29 The servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man got up on his mule, and fled.
      30 It happened, while they were in the way, that the news came to David, saying, "Absalom has slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left!"
      31 Then the king arose, and tore his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.
      32 Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother, answered, "Don't let my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead; for by the appointment of Absalom this has been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.
      33 Now therefore don't let my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead; for Amnon only is dead."
      34 But Absalom fled. The young man who kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, many people were coming by way of the hillside behind him.
      35 Jonadab said to the king, "Behold, the king's sons are coming! It is as your servant said."
      36 It happened, as soon as he had finished speaking, that behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice, and wept. The king also and all his servants wept bitterly.
      37 But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai the son of Ammihur, king of Geshur. David mourned for his son every day.
      38 So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.
      39 King David longed to go forth to Absalom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, since he was dead.

      2 Samuel 14

      27 To Absalom there were born three sons, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar: she was a woman of a beautiful face.
