The Crimson Cord, by Jill Eileen Smith, is a book
in the Daughters of the Promised Land series that tells the story of Rehab. While
I knew of this Bible story from past Bible studies, I really enjoyed reading
this book to read Rehab’s story more in depth, based on what the author
imagined she may have experienced. Rehab was sold into prostitution, due to the
actions of her father and deceased husband. The book then looks at her actions when
Jericho falls. She displayed great bravery throughout the story, as she went
against her people to protect the Israelites.
I really enjoyed this book, and I think it provides
a great way for people to learn more about the lives of those in the Bible.
This book created a very realistic picture of what Rehab’s life may have been
like. The book is a great example of forgiveness and also strength in the face
of adversity.
