Reading for September 24th

Read Joshua 2.15-24
In 2.15-24: the spies renegotiate.
In verse 15: It is difficult to reconcile the location of Rahab's house with the collapse of Jericho's wall in Josh 6.
In verse 16: She is still in charge.
These three days are difficult to correlate with the three days of 1.11 and 3.2.
In verse 17-20: Once they are safely out of Rahab's trap, the spies seek to clarify their obligations in order to avoid violating them unintentionally.
They insist on a conspicuous means of identification, strict concentration of Rahab's family in one place, and their secret if kept.
In verse 24: The spies report only what Rahab has told them (vv. 9, 11).
