Rahab, Woman of Jericho
No Customer Reviews
Some biblical scholars maintain that Rahab, the woman who hid Joshua's two spies, was a harlot or prostitute. So how did she become one of the ancestors of Jesus Christ? Wouldn't the Father ensure a pure lineage for His Son?
In this historical fiction, author Diana Wallis Taylor offers a beautiful story of intrigue that suggests Rahab was a descendent of Ephraim, one of the ten lost tribes of Israel. With no available Jewish men in her town, she marries Radames, a young Egyptian officer who is the new governor of Jericho. When the Israelites approach Canaan with their army, pharaoh sends word that he is withdrawing his troops. Radames fabricates a story to tell Jericho's king, but Hammurabi doesn't believe it...and he has his eye on the beautiful Rahab.
What will happen to Rahab after the lecherous king poisons her husband? How can she save her family from the invading Israelites? God parted the waters of the Jordan River for them--will He likewise provide miracles and blessings to her Ephraimite clan if they can rejoin their people?
