Question 1 Report

Rahab the harlot assisted the Israelite spies as they prepared to attack
Answer Details
According to the Bible, Rahab the harlot assisted the Israelite spies as they prepared to attack Jericho. The story goes that Joshua, the leader of the Israelites, sent two spies to scout out the city of Jericho before the Israelites invaded. The spies stayed at Rahab's house, which was built into the city wall, and she hid them from the king of Jericho's men who were searching for them. Rahab had heard about the Israelites and believed that their God was the true God, so she made a deal with the spies. She agreed to help them escape in exchange for her safety and the safety of her family when the Israelites attacked. The spies agreed, and when the Israelites attacked Jericho, Rahab and her family were spared. The story of Rahab is told in the book of Joshua in the Bible.
