The name Tamar means ""palm tree"". She may bend but won't break.
The righteous will flourish like a palm tree. ---Psalm 92:12 niv
Living many years & miles apart and plagued with debilitating events that hindered their destiny, but only one passionately unlocked and laid claim to what was rightfully her inheritance.
In the relationship between Tamar and Judah, her father-in-law, Tamar recognizes she wasn't simply destined to family betrayal. Her persistence gave birth to a destiny that instead God called righteous!
Later in scripture, another woman named Tamar is raped by her half-brother, Amon. As the daughter of King David, Tamar should have lived the life of an exquisite princess. However, she didn't have the faith to trust in the Lord, instead choosing to remain a defeated victim in a state of desolation.
