Genesis 38:8 - John Wesley's Notes

Genesis 38:8

6 Then Judah ^atook a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was ^bTamar.

7 But ^aEr, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord, ^band the Lord killed him.

8 And Judah said to Onan, “Go in to ^ayour brother’s wife and marry her, and raise up an heir to your brother.”

9 But Onan knew that the heir would not be ^ahis; and it came to pass, when he went in to his brother’s wife, that he emitted on the ground, lest he should give an heir to his brother.

10 And the thing which he did¹ displeased the Lord; therefore He killed ^ahim also.
