Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out 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 the same way was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works, when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?
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?
So also with Rahab the harlot - was she not shown to be justified (pronounced righteous before God) by [good] deeds when she took in the scouts (spies) and sent them away by a different route?
Now, similarly, was not Rahab the prostitute also vindicated [justified as to her possession of a living faith] in that she entertained as guests the messengers and thrust them forth by means of a different way [from that by which they entered the city]?
Rahab, who was a prostitute, has been quoted as an example of faith, yet surely it was her action that pleased God, when she welcomed Joshua's reconnoitering party and sent them safely back by a different route.
Was not even Rahab the prostitute shown to be upright by her good deeds, namely, by entertaining the scouts and sending them off by a different road?
