“And that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.”
And save alive my father and mother, my brothers and sisters, and all who belong to them, and deliver our lives from death — Rahab's specification of her family members demonstrates her care for her household and her understanding that the covenant must extend to all her kinspeople. Her request 'deliver our lives from death' acknowledges the ultimate consequence of Jericho's capture.
