23When the men of Joseph spied out Bethel(it used to be called Luz),
13He said to his servant,“Come on, we will go into one of the other towns and spend the night in Gibeah or Ramah.”
14So they traveled on, and the sun went down when they were near Gibeah in the territory of Benjamin.
15They stopped there and decided to spend the night in Gibeah. They came into the city and sat down in the town square, but no one invited them to spend the night.
16But then an old man passed by, returning at the end of the day from his work in the field. The man was from the Ephraimite hill country; he was living temporarily in Gibeah.(The residents of the town were Benjaminites.)
17When he looked up and saw the traveler in the town square, the old man said,“Where are you heading? Where do you come from?”
21So he brought him to his house and fed the donkeys. They washed their feet and had a meal.
22They were having a good time, when suddenly some men of the city, some good-for-nothings, surrounded the house and kept beating on the door. They said to the old man who owned the house,“Send out the man who came to visit you so we can take carnal knowledge of him.”

1Joshua Sends Spies into the Land Joshua son of Nun sent two spies out from Shittim secretly and instructed them:“Find out what you can about the land, especially Jericho.” They stopped at the house of a prostitute named Rahab and spent the night there.
2The king of Jericho received this report:“Note well! Israelite men have come here tonight to spy on the land.”
3So the king of Jericho sent this order to Rahab:“Turn over the men who came to you– the ones who came to your house– for they have come to spy on the whole land!”
4But the woman hid the two men and replied,“Yes, these men were clients of mine, but I didn’t know where they came from.
5When it was time to shut the city gate for the night, the men left. I don’t know where they were heading. Chase after them quickly, for you have time to catch them!”
14The men said to her,“If you die, may we die too! If you do not report what we’ve been up to, then, when the LORD hands the land over to us, we will show unswerving allegiance to you.”
15Then Rahab let them down by a rope through the window.(Her house was built as part of the city wall; she lived in the wall.)
16She told them,“Head to the hill country, so the ones chasing you don’t find you. Hide from them there for three days, long enough for those chasing you to return. Then you can be on your way.”
22So all of you approached me and said,“Let’s send some men ahead of us to scout out the land and bring us back word as to how we should attack it and what the cities are like there.”

23Then the two men returned– they came down from the hills, crossed the river, came to Joshua son of Nun, and reported to him all they had discovered.
