Hello to all...Today we read through Genesis 38:1-30Today we learned about Judah
2Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua; and he took her and went in to her.
3So she conceived and bore a son and he named him Er.
4Then she conceived again and bore a son and named him Onan.
5She bore still another son and named him Shelah; and it was at Chezib that she bore him.
6Now Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.

27It came about at the time she was giving birth, that behold, there were twins in her womb.
28Moreover, it took place while she was giving birth, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, "This one came out first."
29But it came about as he drew back his hand, that behold, his brother came out. Then she said, "What a breach you have made for yourself!" So he was named Perez.
30Afterward his brother came out who had the scarlet thread on his hand; and he was named Zerah.
So one baby stuck out his arm and was titled "first" but was born second...I wonder how that will pan out later...I wonder what his character will be like...
please continue on with me in tomorrow's reading. Genesis 39:1-23
