This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.
Ver. 31. With them that believed not] To wit, that gave not credit to those common reports of God and his great works, but despised them as light news, and refused to be at the pains of further inquiry.
When she had received the spies] Whom to secure she told a lie, which was ill done. The apostle commends her faith in God, but not her deceit toward her neighbour, as Hugo well observeth.
