Matthew’s Gospel begins with the genealogy of Jesus and includes five remarkable women, one of whom was his mother. In this episode, scientist and genealogist, Nancy Dawson unpacks the story of the least known of the women, Tamar. Matthew’s inclusion of these women was purposeful not accidental, but why? Listen to Nancy, and I think you will know why.
Dr. Dawson is author of an important book, "All the Genealogies of the Bible" (Zondervan Academic).
