Genesi 38:10 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 38:10

And the thing which he did displeased the Lord
Being done out of envy to his brother, and through want of affection to the memory of his name; and it may be out of covetousness to get his estate into his own hands, and especially as it frustrated the end of such an usage of marrying a brother's wife; which appears to be according to the will of God, since it afterwards became a known law of his; and it was the more displeasing, as it was not only a check upon the multiplication of Abraham's seed as promised, but since the Messiah was to come from Judah.

in like manner as he had slain his brother, ( Genesis 38:7 ) .

Genesi 38:10 In-Context

8 E Giuda disse ad Onon: Entra dalla moglie del tuo fratello, e sposala per ragion di consanguinità, e suscita progenie al tuo fratello.
9 Ma Onan, sapendo che quella progenie non sarebbe sua, quando entrava dalla moglie del suo fratello, si corrompeva in terra, per non dar progenie al suo fratello.
10 E ciò ch’egli faceva dispiacque al Signore; ed egli fece morire ancora lui.
11 E Giuda disse a Tamar, sua nuora: Stattene vedova in casa di tuo padre, finchè Sela, mio figliuolo, sia divenuto grande; perciocchè egli diceva: E’ si convien provvedere che costui ancora non muoia, come i suoi fratelli. Tamar adunque se ne andò, e dimorò in casa di suo padre.
12 E, dopo molti giorni, morì la figliuola di Sua, moglie di Giuda; e, dopo che Giuda si fu consolato, salì in Timna, con Hira Adullamita, suo famigliare amico, a’ tonditori delle sue pecore.
