I think this story offers a great reflection on achieving Justice in the midst of oppression. Let me know what you think!

In our (Jewish) tradition, it's clear that Judah was wrong in the story. What Judah actually says at the end is that Tamar was "more righteous than me", which is quite a turn-around for him. She was the ancestor of King David- see book of Ruth- which is why she appears in Jesus's genealogy. This guy is pretty good, paying attention to pronunciation and at least trying to think how people thought back then, and what ancient customs were like. Curious that he skips over why Onan died.

Skull laminated male and female for the Christ sleep in every man, and female, that look outside for inside truth.

It's taught male and female are not the birth of infinite Christ that is in everyone.
