She understood that Jehovah was the true God and did not allow fear of her neighbors to determine her decision.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-q1-c2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> She also showed courage by hiding the spies and misleading the king\u2019s men. She knew that if they discovered what she had done, her life would be in danger. Even so, she protected Jehovah\u2019s servants because she had faith in him.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s1 ctj-unit-q1-c3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Her courage was not limited to one night. Rahab tied the scarlet cord, kept the spies\u2019 mission secret, and gathered her family into the house. She carefully followed the instructions, trusting that Jehovah would fulfill his promise.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-congregation_study-section\">2. How do we know that the spies did not go to Rahab\u2019s house with immoral intentions?

He told them: \u201cGo and inspect the land, especially Jericho.\u201d So they went and came to the house of a prostitute named Rahab, and they stayed there.<\/em><br><br> <strong>Comment 1:<\/strong> The account says that the spies came to Rahab\u2019s house and stayed there, but it gives no indication of immoral intentions. It was a place where they could go unnoticed, and the house\u2019s location on the wall would make it easier for them to escape.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-q2-c2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> Rahab\u2019s house may not have aroused suspicion in a city such as Jericho. So, from a practical standpoint, it was a suitable place to obtain information and plan an escape without immediately attracting attention.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s2 ctj-unit-q2-s2 ctj-bible-bible_003 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Leviticus 18:24-30<\/strong> \u2014 <em>\u201c\u2018Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these things, for it is by all these things that the nations that I am driving out from before you have made themselves unclean.

But you yourselves must keep my statutes and my judicial decisions, and you must not do any of these detestable things, whether a native or a foreigner who is residing among you. For all these detestable things were done by the men who lived in the land before you, and now the land is unclean. Then the land will not have to vomit you out for defiling it in the same way that it will vomit out the nations that were before you. If anyone does any of these detestable things, all those doing them must be cut off from among their people. You must keep your obligation to me by not practicing any of the detestable customs that were carried on before you, so that you do not make yourselves unclean by them. I am Jehovah your God.\u2019\u201d<\/em><br><br> <strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Jehovah was executing judgment against the Canaanites because of their detestable practices.

(w04 12\/1 p. 9 par. 1)<\/h3><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-q4-c1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 1:<\/strong> Rahab was not obligated to reveal the spies\u2019 whereabouts to men who wanted to harm them. She had chosen to take Jehovah\u2019s side and protected those who were carrying out a mission related to his purpose.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-q4-s1 ctj-bible-bible_007 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Matthew 7:6<\/strong> \u2014 <em>\u201cDo not give what is holy to dogs nor throw your pearls before swine, so that they may never trample them under their feet and turn around and rip you open.<\/em><br><br> <strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> Jesus taught that holy things should not be given to those who would despise them. Similarly, Rahab did not hand over information that opponents would use to harm God\u2019s servants. Her objective was not to cause harm but to protect them.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s4 ctj-unit-q4-s2 ctj-bible-bible_008 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>John 7:3-10<\/strong> \u2014 <em>So his brothers said to him: \u201cLeave here and go into Judea, so that your disciples may also see the works you are doing. For no one does anything in secret when he seeks to be known publicly. If you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.\u201d His brothers were, in fact, not exercising faith in him. So Jesus said to them: \u201cMy time has not yet arrived, but your time is always at hand. The world has no reason to hate you, but it hates me, because I bear witness about it that its works are wicked. You go up to the festival; I am not yet going up to this festival, because my time has not yet fully come.\u201d So after he told them these things, he remained in Galilee. But when his brothers had gone up to the festival, then he also went up, not openly but in secret.<\/em><br><br> <strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Jesus himself acted discreetly when there was opposition.

What can those studying the Bible learn from her example?<\/h3><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s5 ctj-unit-q5-c1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 1:<\/strong> Rahab had to break with a humiliating life and with Jericho\u2019s immoral environment. In addition, she had to leave her own people and take the side of a nation that was going to conquer the city. No doubt, that required faith and great courage.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s5 ctj-unit-q5-c2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> She did not allow her past to determine her future. What she heard about Jehovah gave her hope because she saw that he was just, clean, and good. Those studying the Bible can also trust that Jehovah dignifies those who want to change.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s5 ctj-unit-q5-c3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Rahab acted in harmony with what she learned. She protected the spies, followed their instructions, and gathered her family. Her example encourages Bible students to take concrete steps to abandon wrong conduct and serve Jehovah.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-congregation_study-section\">The Bible tells us that we must not lie. However, enemies of God\u2019s people may pressure us to reveal confidential information about our brothers. In such cases, what can we learn from Rahab\u2019s example? (Prov. 11:13; Eccl. 3:7; Eph. 4:25) C<\/h3><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s6 ctj-unit-q6-s1 ctj-bible-bible_010 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Proverbs 11:13<\/strong> \u2014 <em>A slanderer goes about revealing confidential talk, But the trustworthy person keeps a confidence.<\/em><br><br> <strong>Comment 1:<\/strong> Proverbs shows that a trustworthy person keeps confidences. Therefore, we should not disclose personal matters or information that could endanger our brothers.

If someone hostile pressures us for information about our brothers, Rahab\u2019s example teaches us not to cooperate with those who intend to harm God\u2019s people.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-combined-answer ctj-editorial-part-s6 ctj-unit-q6-s3 ctj-bible-bible_012 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ephesians 4:25<\/strong> \u2014 <em>Therefore, now that you have put away deceit, each one of you speak truth with his neighbor, because we are members belonging to one another.<\/em><br><br> <strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Ephesians commands us to put away deceit and speak the truth.

She did not allow her city\u2019s opinion to be more important than what she had learned about Jehovah.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s7 ctj-unit-q7-c2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> We can also be courageous by obeying instructions even when they seem simple. Rahab tied the scarlet cord, remained in the house, and gathered her family. Her safety depended on obedience, and she did not take those instructions lightly.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s7 ctj-unit-q7-c3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Another way to imitate her is to use our circumstances to support Jehovah\u2019s servants. Rahab used her house and her knowledge of the city to help the spies. We can look for practical ways to support our brothers.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-congregation_study-section\">What does this account teach me about Jehovah?<\/h3><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s8 ctj-unit-q8-c1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 1:<\/strong> Jehovah is just. He carried out the punishment he had decided on against Jericho because of its horrible practices, but at the same time he saw Rahab\u2019s faith. He does not judge people only by their past but by what they do after coming to know him.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s8 ctj-unit-q8-c2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> Jehovah protects those who take his side. Rahab obeyed the instructions she received, and she and her family survived when Jericho fell. This assures us that Jehovah never forgets those who demonstrate faith and loyalty.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s8 ctj-unit-q8-c3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> We also learn that Jehovah dignifies people. Rahab wanted a better life, left her immoral conduct, and became part of Israel. Jehovah gave her a future she surely would not have imagined.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-congregation_study-section\">How does this account relate to Jehovah\u2019s purpose and the Bible\u2019s main theme?<\/h3><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s9 ctj-unit-q9-c1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 1:<\/strong> The conquest of Jericho showed that Jehovah was carrying out his purpose to give the Promised Land to Israel. He protected his people and executed his judicial decisions, demonstrating that his promises always come true.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s9 ctj-unit-q9-c2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> The account also highlights a central Bible theme: Jehovah blesses those who exercise faith, regardless of their background. Rahab was not an Israelite, but she recognized Jehovah\u2019s authority and acted in harmony with that faith.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s9 ctj-unit-q9-c3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Jehovah allowed Rahab to become part of Israel and to have descendants. In time, Jesus Christ was born through her family line. Thus, her story is connected with the development of the line leading to the Messiah.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading ctj-editorial-section ctj-congregation_study-section\">What would I like to ask Rahab when she is resurrected?<\/h3><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s10 ctj-unit-q10-c1 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 1:<\/strong> We might ask her what most convinced her that Jehovah was the true God: what she had heard about the Red Sea, Israel\u2019s victories, or the way Jehovah protected his people.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s10 ctj-unit-q10-c2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 2:<\/strong> It would also be very interesting to ask her how she managed to gather her family into the house and keep them calm during the battle. Her experience could help us appreciate even more the trust she placed in the instructions she received.<\/p><p class=\"ctj-editorial-unit ctj-editorial-labeled-answer ctj-editorial-part-s10 ctj-unit-q10-c3 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comment 3:<\/strong> Perhaps we would like to know how she felt when she began a new life among the Israelites.

him.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Answers and comments for the Congregation Bible Study for the week of October 26\u2013November 1, 2026, based on wcg chap.
