Wakurugenziiii๐๐ค๐ค๐ค The kind of energy I got when calling you guys๐, I wish I could be doing it literally๐ . I feel some typa thrill when referring to my wadau and wadauresses๐.๐ Now, pull a stool for this narration ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ Relax! It's a Bible story ๐
Ayaa basi, popote pale ulipo mpenzi msomaji naomba twende moja kwa moja hadi mtaa wa Judah, Israeli ๐. In 2 Samwel 13, we cover the story of Tamar, the princess of Israel, daughter of King David, who was raped by her half brother Amnon. Tamar's mum was called Maacah bat Talmal. The Bible records that Tamar was very beautiful. Let me put it better๐ค. Absalom was Tamar' brother. The Bible records that Absalom was more handsome than the dad David. He was pretty closer to perfect in the looks department ๐, sembuse dada yake๐ ?! Anyone can gerrit ๐คท๐คฃ. Tamar was such a pretty doll ama Mali Safi as young men of nowadays would put it๐ lol.
Amnon was desperately in love with the sister Tamar. No, desperate was understatement, Amnon was obsessed with the sister and since she was a virgin, Amnon thought it was impossible to have her๐คจ.
Mdau, who is in your in circle? In Amnon's circle happened to be a cousin by the name Jonadab (son of David's brother Shimea). The Bible says that Jonadab was a crafty friend, a very shrewd man. He asked Amnon, "Mtoto wa mkurugenzi mkuu, son of a king, what's troubling you? Why do you look so haggard every other morning?"
Amnon said, "I am in love with my sister Tamar, Absalom's sister๐"
Jonadab was like, "Aaaah, broo, what are friends for?๐คท Hiyo tu? Tunakachora bro๐." Weeeuh๐
5 “Well,” Jonadab said, “I’ll tell you what to do. Go back to bed and pretend you are ill. When your father comes to see you, ask him to let Tamar come and prepare some food for you. Tell him you’ll feel better if she prepares it as you watch and feeds you with her own hands.” Saitaniii amejipa nafasi ๐ฐ. smh๐คจ
So you think Amnon would disappoint?! Noo, he lay on bed and pretended to be ill. His father, King David came in to see him and Amnon said to him, "I would like my sister Tamar to come and make some special ๐ in my sight, so I may eat from her hand."
David did as requested, he sent a word to Tamar in the palace to go to Amnon's house and have some food prepared. Remember this guy has servants in his house who would cook for him but haisuruu๐. Tamar went to her brother who was lying down. She took the dough and as she kneaded it, Amnon's eyes were on her. They say, kukula kwa macho๐. Well, Tamar did the cooking and on setting the serving tray, jamaa kataad to eat๐ค. He sent all his servants out and asked Tamar to bring the food to the bedroom so that he would eat from Tamar's hands. Would Tamar suspect a thing? I don't think so, this is a blood brother๐คท. Shock on her!
When she took the food to him, he grabbed her and asked her to come to bed with her.

Yaani, Tamar gets to a point of asking him to get permission from the father to get married to her๐ฒ๐ณ Old testament Jo! Or maybe hiyo time hawakuwa wengi so you would marry your cousin/sister. Hii nayo sijui, I will have to ask my pastor about it.
Amnon refused to listen and since he was stronger than her, he raped her๐๐ฅบ๐๐ง๐ฐ๐ข๐ฅ๐๐๐๐ฉ๐ซ. Then Amnon hated her than he loved her. He snarled at her, "get up and get out!" Ouuuch๐
"No" Tamar said, "sending me out now is worse than what you have done to me๐ฐ๐ฅ"
Amnon ni nani? He called his personal servant to get her out! "Get this woman out of here and bolt the door after her."๐
The servant did as commanded.
Tamar was on a beautiful robe since it was the kind of a robe worn by virgin daughters of the king. She tore the robe and put ashes on her head with her face in her hands crying ๐๐ฐ.
Her brother Absalom said to her, "Has that Amnon, your brother, been with you? Be quite now, my sister, he is your brother. Don't take this to heart." Brothers are so protective ๐ฅฐ but they forget so fast when salivating and messing with someone else's sister๐ค.
Tamar lived in her brother Absalom's house, a desolate woman. When the king heard about this, he was furious and devastated ๐. Absalom NEVER said a word to Amnon, he hated him for disgracing his sister Tamar. Fear these guys who go silent without a word after wronging them. I will be covering his story on how he planned and killed his brother Amnon, way later. This guy can keep a grudge๐ค.
Lessons
Lust is addictive and once you give yourself to it, you become a slave of sin and it's hard to resist.
Lust makes you guilty and isolates you from people. People hates more than they loved before. In this story, before Amnon got Tamar, he would do anything to get her since he thought he loved her but it was all lust, he hated her so much after the act. You will hear stories of rape whereby the victim is killed after the act. This is due to the too much hatred that comes along with this.
Lust is dangerous. It leads to sin and sin leads to death. Note that lust is attractive as well ๐.
Don't let sin dominate you. Like Job in the book of Job 31:1, he says I have made a covenant with my eyes, never to look at a woman lustfully. 1 Peter 2:11 says, guard yourself against the 'fleshly' desires that's fights your soul.
Roman 12:1-2
Do not conform to the patterns of this world.

Woi cried on behalf of Tamar lakini hizi vitu zote David alijiletea๐๐Even though God forgave him for killing Bathsheba's wife his children had to suffer. Absalom was a good brother and the other rapist weeh he deserved to die . Sometimes I low key fancy old testament punishment maybe if it were still there in these days guys wouldn't have messed with people's daughters.
