Well, even before the king's messengers arrived, Rahab learned that her visitors are Israelite spies. So she hid them on the roof, and now she tells the king's messengers: "Yes, the men did come to me . . . And it came about at the closing of the gate by dark that the men went out." Rahab urges them: "Chase after them."
Why, do you think, has Rahab protected the spies? - she explains why, telling them: "I do know that Jehovah will certainly give you the land . . . For we have heard how Jehovah dried up the waters of the Red Sea from before when you came out of Egypt." She has also heard about other victories God has given Israel over their enemies.
