" 'The woman's name is Rahab,' Salmon said
to the two
venerable old warriors. 'She called down to us from a
window in the wall and met us just inside the gate,
then took us into her house. She hid us on her roof
before the soldiers came, then told them we'd left the
city.'
Ephraim quickly took up Rahab's defense as well. 'The
soldiers believed her lie and went chasing after shadows.'
'She welcomed us with kindness and recommended we wait
in the hill country for three days before returning to
give you our report. It was this woman who said the
Lord has given us the land. She said, 'The Lord your
God is the supreme God of the heavens above and the
earth below.' And she asked us to give an oath to
save her family from death, an oath by the Lord.'
Joshua's eyes narrowed slightly. 'And did you give this oath?'
Salmon felt the sweat break out on the back of his neck.
Had he overstepped himself and gone against the will of
the Lord? 'Yes, sir, we did give our oath.' He swallowed
hard. 'If I have done wrong in this, I pray the Lord
will hold me alone responsible and not punish this woman.
We did swear before the Lord our God that anyone inside
Rahab's house would be spared.'
'Then it will be so,' Joshua said.
Salmon breathed easier."
SoAmazing Review: A
story well told is characteristic of a Francine Rivers'
book. She always delivers an engaging, thoughtful
reading experience. I've read six of her books and plan
to read several more.
