Tamar

Meaning: palm; palm-tree · Female · 1 cross reference

This Tamar entry refers to the daughter of Absalom in 2 Samuel 14:27, not to Tamar daughter of David or Tamar daughter-in-law of Judah. She belongs to the royal house of Judah in the aftermath of family fracture and ambition. First appears in 2 Sam 14:27.1

AI summary: This Tamar matters because her single cross reference extends the tangled family story of David into the next generation through Absalom's house. The entry adds domestic and dynastic texture to the aftermath of rebellion and royal sorrow. Taken together, the material presents this Tamar as a royal daughter in Absalom's line.1
