Tamar was the name of several women in the Old Testament. It was also the name of several cities or other places in the Old Testament.
|

|
|
* Tamar was the daughter-in-law of Judah. She gave birth to Perez who was an ancestor of Jesus Christ.
|
||
|
|
* One of King David's daughters was named Tamar; she was the sister of Absalom. Her half-brother Amnon raped her and left her desolate.
|
||
|
|
* Absalom also had a daughter named Tamar.
|
||
|
|
* A city called "Hazezon Tamar" was the same as the city of Engedi on the western shore of the Salt Sea. There is also a "Baal Tamar," and general references to a place called "Tamar" which may have been different from the cities.
