Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Sep 23, 2021

The conquest of Canaan was summed up in two New Testament passages: Heb 11:30, 31 and Jas 2:23-25, which concludes By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, Rahab the harlot justified by works, so faith without works is dead.”

Contributed by Bruce Ball on Aug 30, 2019

In Joshua 2, we read about a woman named Rahab. She was a prostitute who had faith in God, helped the Israelites, and even became the 35th great-grandmother of our Lord Jesus Christ.
