Why was Rahab spared during the fall of Jericho?

Rahab's faith led her to believe the reports of God's judgment and deliverance, prompting her to protect the spies from Joshua. In Joshua 2:11, she declares her belief that the Lord is God in heaven above and on earth below. This bold act of faith resulted in her and her family being spared during the destruction of Jericho. Hebrews 11:31 highlights her faith as the reason for her salvation, emphasizing that true faith results in deliverance. Just as the scarlet cord signified safety for Rahab, faith in the blood of Christ is our means of refuge from God’s wrath.
