Joshua 2:5 in Context — Joshua 2
3 Então o rei de Jericó, enviou a dizer a Raabe: Tira fora os homens que vieram a ti, e entraram em tua casa; porque vieram a espiar toda a terra.
4 Mas a mulher havia tomado os dois homens, e os havia escondido; e disse: Verdade que homens vieram a mim, mas não soube de onde eram:
5 E ao fechar-se a porta, sendo já escuro, esses homens saíram, e não sei para onde se foram: segui-os depressa, que os alcançareis.
6 Mas ela os havia feito subir ao terraço, e havia os escondido entre talos de linho que naquele terraço tinha posto.
7 E os homens foram atrás eles pelo caminho do Jordão, até os vaus: e a porta foi fechada depois que saíram os que atrás eles iam.
