Rahab the harlot protects the two spies in Jericho. She takes them to the roof of her house. Because she lives in the city walls, the two spies lower themselves through the window with a red rope. And the harlot asked them to protect her when they conquered Jericho. The red rope will be a sign that it is her house, where she and her family, father and mother, brothers and sisters are waiting to be rescued.
