SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:19
Entonces Tamar tomó ceniza, y la esparció sobre su cabeza, y rasgó su ropa de colores de que estaba vestida, y puestas sus manos sobre su cabeza, se fue gritando.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 19. And Tamar put ashes on her head , etc.] In token of sorrow and distress; (see Joshua 7:6); and rent her garment of divers colours that [was] on her ; signifying that her virginity was rent from her in a forcible manner, or that she was ravished: and laid her hand on her head ; through grief and shame; (see Jeremiah 2:37); and went on crying ; from Amnon’s house to her brother Absalom’s, as one abused and injured.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-20 - From henceforward David was followed with one trouble after another Adultery and murder were David's sins, the like sins among his children were the beginnings of his punishment: he was too indulgent to his children. Thus David might trace the sins of his children to his ow misconduct, which must have made the anguish of the chastisement worse Let no one ever expect good treatment from those who are capable of attempting their seduction; but it is better to suffer the greates wrong than to commit the least sin.
