Crimson Cord: Rahab's Story
Crimson Cord: Rahab's Story | Jill Eileen Smith
4 posts | 9 read | 3 to read
Wife to a gambler who took one too many risks, Rahab finds herself sold as a slave to cover her husband's debt. Forced into prostitution by Dabir, counselor to the Syrian king, Rahab despairs of ever regaining her freedom and her self-respect. But when Israelite spies enter Jericho and come to lodge at her house, Rahab sees a glimmer of hope and the opportunity of a lifetime. In one risky moment, she takes a leap of faith, puts her trust in a God she does not know, and vows to protect the spies from the authorities. When the armies of Israel arrive weeks later, Rahab hopes they will keep their promise, but she has no idea what kind of challenges await her outside Jericho's walls--or if she will ever know the meaning of love. Under Jill Eileen Smith's talented hand, the familiar story of Rahab bursts forth in high definition. Readers will find themselves fully immersed in a world of dark and dusty streets, clandestine meetings, and daring escapes as a mysterious biblical figure claims her full humanity--and a permanent place in readers' hearts.

All of these books have something in common. Can you figure out what it is?

10/10. This book is gorgeous. I‘ve researched Rahab pretty extensively for the purposes of sermon writing and this book NAILS the biblical and historical context, while weaving in a beautiful narrative of this very complex woman and her life and faith! Highly recommend (this one and the rest of the series)!
