Tamar and Rahab

December 03, 2023

Rev. Dr. Jacob Buchholz

Matthew's story of the birth of Jesus begins with a genealogy listing the names of all of Jesus' ancestors from Abraham to Joseph. This year, rather than skipping over the hard to pronounce names, we are going to take a closer look at Jesus genealogy and lift up the five women that are strangely included to see what they might teach us about the Savior who enters the world this Christmas. First up: Tamar and Rahab.
