I’ve started a Bible study through the book of Joshua. In chapter 2, Josh sends two spies into the town of Jericho (I am a fan of the TV series). The two spies hide in a lady’s house named Rahab who lies to the town officials about hiding the two men. Hebrews 11 praises her for her faith. Although Hebrews does not praise her for the lie, but some could read that her lie in this case was justified and condoned by God.
Rahab’s lie is not the first lie that wasn’t for the good. Exodus 1:19 has a couple of midwives that lied to pharaoh in order to save the lives of innocent baby boys. Was this lie justified? Was is condoned or overlooked by God? Basically, was their lie wrong?
Let me know what you think.

Sorry it has been so long since my last post. I don’t know where you may be but there is a flu going around that made me want to die. I am glad I didn’t.
