2 Samuel 13:19
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.
And Tamar put ashes on her head,.... 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.
