Ῥαάβ G4460
Rahab, the Canaanite woman of Jericho who sheltered Israel's spies and was saved
A proper name (Hebrew רָחָב) for the harlot of Jericho. Hebrews 11:31 includes her in the hall of faith—by faith Rahab did not perish with the disobedient, having received the spies with peace. James 2:25 cites her as evidence that faith without works is dead—she demonstrated living faith by her actions in hiding the spies. Both passages celebrate her as a Gentile outsider who believed God's word and acted on it, becoming part of Israel's story and Messiah's lineage (Matthew 1:5).
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — The glosses transliterate the Hebrew name ('Rahab,' 'Raáb'). Hebrews 11:31 and James 2:25 both recall Joshua 2—Rahab's faith-driven protection of Israel's spies. The NT honors her as a model of saving faith and active obedience, remarkable given her Gentile and immoral background. Her inclusion in both the genealogy of Jesus and the faith roster underscores God's grace reaching beyond Israel's boundaries. 2×
