“And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.”
After she left, she took off her veil and put on her widow's clothes again. The return to widow's clothing is the return to the waiting that has been her legal status since Genesis 38:11. The plan is complete; the pledge is secured. The application: Tamar returns to the widow's life she was assigned and waits for the moment when the pledge will become the evidence.
