Rahab and the Spies • Joshua 2:1-24, 6:24-25
The enemies of God’s people once lived in a city of Jericho. Joshua, who led God’s people, sent 2 spies into Jericho. In this city, there was a woman named Rahab. She heard about the great God that the Israelites worshipped. She helped the two spies who went into the city. She was courageous because she heard about the great God who is very powerful. She hid the spies in her house because the soldiers were looking for them and later helped them escape. The spies told Rahab to put a red rope on her window so that when God’s people come to attack, they will keep Rahab and her family save. Rahad could help the Israelites because God helped her to be brave.
