And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that was on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went on crying.
Tamar se echó ceniza en la cabeza, rasgó la túnica de colores que llevaba puesta, se puso la mano en la cabeza y se fue gritando a gran voz.
Tamar mostró su dolor y deshonra de manera pública con gestos tradicionales de lamento.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This follows the tragic account of Tamar being sexually assaulted by her half-brother Amnon, one of King David's sons. In ancient Hebrew culture, putting ashes on one's head, tearing clothes, and public crying were traditional expressions of extreme grief, mourning, or shame. The 'garment of divers colours' was likely a special robe worn by virgin daughters of the king, symbolizing her royal status and purity.
