Reader reviews for Tamar, First Author of the Bible

From the publisher

Tamar was the first to record in writing the beliefs of the Jewish people that had been orally transmitted from generation to generation for 1000 years. In so doing, she wrote the first Bible, which was added to over the centuries and became the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible/Torah that we have at home today. Mr. Lamp tells of the clues he found in today's Bible and the biblical who-done-it trail that led him to identify Tamar as the first author. He goes on to explain what the religion was like when Tamar wrote, which was in the time of King David (her father) when his nation was at the zenith of power and influence in the ancient world. It was a religion that had no restraints on personal freedom: no laws of Moses, no circumcision, no dietary restrictions, no exclusivity, and no sacrifices, tithes or rituals. It was a religion where the non-violent God lovingly watched over His people and asked for nothing in return, made no demands and issued no commands. In another book, THE TAMAR BIBLE, The First Judeo-Christian Scripture, Mr. Lamp explained how he was able to separate Tamar's writings from the voluminous additions made by the later biblical authors, and he provided us with the complete text of that first Bible. In this book, in addition to describing the original Judaism and the identification of Tamar, Mr. Lamp conveys Tamar's personal story of her rape by her half-brother, the Crown Prince, and how she became desolate in the house of her full brother - unmarriageable, it was no wonder that she devoted herself to writing the first Bible. And Mr. Lamp goes off on a tangent to address whether we can justifiably call Tamar the world's first known feminist because of the way she wrote that Bible.
