The Crimson Cord

Rahab's Story (Daughters of the Promised Land, Book 1)

De: Jill Eileen Smith

Narrado por: Callie Beaulieu

Wife to a gambler who took one too many risks, Rahab finds herself sold as a slave to cover her husband's debt. Forced into prostitution, she despairs of ever regaining her freedom and her self-respect. But when Israelite spies enter Jericho and come to lodge at her house, Rahab sees a glimmer of hope and the opportunity of a lifetime. In one risky moment, she takes a leap of faith, puts her trust in a God she does not know, and vows to protect the spies from the authorities.

When the armies of Israel arrive weeks later, Rahab hopes they will keep their promise, but she has no idea what kind of challenges await her outside Jericho's walls - or if she will ever know the meaning of love.

Under Jill Eileen Smith's talented hand, the familiar story of Rahab bursts forth in high definition. Immerse yourself in a world of dark and dusty streets, clandestine meetings, and daring escapes as a mysterious biblical figure claims her full humanity - and a permanent place in your heart.

The Book is Very Good, Not the Performance

I like this author a lot. I wish she would have used a different narrator. The narrator sounded like a robot. It made it hard to listen to. The story is very good. So it was disappointing to have the narration so bad.

Good book hard to put down

This was a really really good book. It’s hard to put it down when it is done.

Nice story, good character development

I too always wondered how Rahab might have ended up where she was - God works all things to good, this was an interesting and plausible scenario

Excellent!

This is a beautifully written story!! The narration was also really well done. I couldn’t stop listening to this one and look forward to the next in the series.

Rahab

This is the first book I’ve read on Rahab.  I truly enjoyed this rendition and the authors honesty, and I love seeing how God would have worked through her situations to bring her to him.
