Psychological interpretation

Genesis 38 read psychologically: Tamar (palm tree, the comely one) is the desired state, veiled as a harlot in the public place; King Judah (whose name opens with JOD HE VAU) must pledge his ring, bracelet and staff, the symbols of himself, and go in unto her, and she bears his likeness: one becomes conscious of being what one wants and it is objectified.
