In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction?

Didn’t God consider even Rahab the prostitute to be right with him? That’s because of what she did for the spies. She gave them a place to stay. Then she sent them off in a different direction.

And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?

In the same way, wasn’t Rahab the prostitute also justified by works in receiving the messengers and sending them out by a different route?

In the same way, was Rahab the prostitute not justified by works also when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?

Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

And in like manner was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?

And in the same way, wasn’t Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by a different route?

It was by faith that Rahab the prostitute was not destroyed with the people in her city who refused to obey God. For she had given a friendly welcome to the spies.

Then Joshua secretly sent out two spies from the Israelite camp at Acacia Grove. He instructed them,“ Scout out the land on the other side of the Jordan River, especially around Jericho.” So the two men set out and came to the house of a prostitute named Rahab and stayed there that night.

Rahab had hidden the two men, but she replied,“ Yes, the men were here earlier, but I didn’t know where they were from.

Salmon was the father of Boaz( whose mother was Rahab). Boaz was the father of Obed( whose mother was Ruth). Obed was the father of Jesse.

Then, since Rahab’s house was built into the town wall, she let them down by a rope through the window.

If they go out into the street and are killed, it will not be our fault. But if anyone lays a hand on people inside this house, we will accept the responsibility for their death.If you betray us, however, we are not bound by this oath in any way.”“ I accept your terms,” she replied. And she sent them on their way, leaving the scarlet rope hanging from the window.

Meanwhile, Joshua said to the two spies,“ Keep your promise. Go to the prostitute’s house and bring her out, along with all her family.”The men who had been spies went in and brought out Rahab, her father, mother, brothers, and all the other relatives who were with her. They moved her whole family to a safe place near the camp of Israel.Then the Israelites burned the town and everything in it. Only the things made from silver, gold, bronze, or iron were kept for the treasury of the Lord’s house.So Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute and her relatives who were with her in the house, because she had hidden the spies Joshua sent to Jericho. And she lives among the Israelites to this day.

“ Which of the two obeyed his father?” They replied,“ The first.” Then Jesus explained his meaning:“ I tell you the truth, corrupt tax collectors and prostitutes will get into the Kingdom of God before you do.

( Actually, she had taken them up to the roof and hidden them beneath bundles of flax she had laid out.)

Now someone may argue,“ Some people have faith; others have good deeds.” But I say,“ How can you show me your faith if you don’t have good deeds? I will show you my faith by my good deeds.”

Jericho and everything in it must be completely destroyed as an offering to the Lord. Only Rahab the prostitute and the others in her house will be spared, for she protected our spies.

You see, his faith and his actions worked together. His actions made his faith complete.
