ISB ~ Hebrews 11 v29 - 31

The faithful of the Exodus and Conquest periods.

• It took faith for the people of Israel to walk across the floor of the Red Sea with walls of water on both sides (11:29; Ex 14:21-31), just as faith was needed to level the city of Jericho with a liturgical procession rather than a military operation (11:30; Josh 6:1-20). Rahab displayed faith when she hid the scouts of Israel and professed belief in the God of Israel (11:31; Josh 2:1-21; 6:23).
