“By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.”
By faith Rahab the prostitute did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had received the spies peacefully — Rahab's faith (Joshua 2) is emphasized despite her status (porne, prostitute): she received (dechomai) the Israelite scouts, identifying with a coming kingdom over her own city's judgment. Her faith transcended social location.
