Joshua chapter 2 summary began as Joshua sent out two men to spy the land of Canaan. They came to a “harlot’s” house named Rahab. This woman hid the two men from her country’s officials in Jericho.
Rahab told the two spies her country had been filled with terror since they heard of the favor bestowed towards the children of Israel. The people of Jericho discovered what the LORD did for Israel, in Egypt all the way to the Amorites. This included the takedown of two powerful big-wig kings, king Og and king Sihon.
Joshua Chapter 2 Summary
She knew the LORD was with them and more significant than that, that the LORD was the true God. Therefore, she did what any wise person would do, if they knew they were on a losing team; she made a covenant with the spies.
The agreement she made with Israel included being delivered, her and her household; she wanted her family to keep them safe during the siege. They agreed to a plan to remember her by setting a scarlet bow on her house.
So when Israel stormed the land they would be passed over. The two spies returned and told Joshua the report that the people’s heart had been melted because of Israel.
Therefore, they should move quickly and take the land confidently, for the Lord has truly given it to them. This is Joshua chapter 2 summary, glory to the HOLY ONE of Israel.
