Commentary
And it was told Tamar,.... By some of her neighbours, or by some of Judah's family:
saying, behold, thy father in law goeth up to Timnath to shear his sheep; which might be told her as an indifferent thing, without any design in it; but she took notice of it, and it gave her an opportunity she wanted.
