| Rahab helps the Israelite spies to escape (freebibleimages.org) |
Central Truth: Other people see what God does, so let your light shine!
Scriptures: Joshua 2
In preparation for the Israelites to invade the Promised Land, Joshua sent two spies into the city of Jericho. The spies went to the house of Rahab and, when the king of Jericho heard that there were Israelites within Jericho, he sent men to Rahab demanding the spies to be turned over to them. The men could not find the spies, however, because Rahab had hidden them in the roof of her house.
Rahab told the spies that the people of Jericho had heard what had happened in Egypt and the crossing of the Red Sea and how they had destroyed the Amalekites. The people of Jericho were afraid of the Israelites. Rahab asked the men to save her and her family when the Israelites attacked. The spies promised that no harm will come to them and to hang a scarlet thread in the window so that the Israelites would know not to harm anyone in her home.
Bible Scrapbook
Each week the children will be adding to their scrapbooks what they have learned during Sunday School. This week, we each made a scarlet cord of salvation for our scrapbooks. We took three strands of red thread and attached it to our scrapbooks. Then we braided the thread and added some beads at the bottom.
