In the Gospel of Matthew Rahab is mentioned as one of the ancestors of Jesus. Rahab was an intelligent and independent woman born to a noble family in Jericho. In those times a woman could either choose to be a slave to her husband or live a life of freedom as a prostitute. Rahab chose the latter. Rahab kindly hid Joshua’s spies when the King of Jericho sent his army out to look for them, thus leading to the conquest of Jericho by the armies of Israel.
