11:31 Rahab the prostitute (Josh 2; 6:25) showed faith in the power of the God of Israel by protecting the spies who came to her home (cp. Jas 2:25). As a result, she and her family were not destroyed but joined the community of Israel. In fact, Rahab was an ancestor of Jesus (Matt 1:5).
Here the author refers to a story about a woman named Rahab. She was a prostitute who lived in the city of Jericho. When Joshua sent spies to see what Jericho was like, Rahab hid them from the leaders of the city and sent them safely back to Joshua. Because she did that, Joshua had the Israelites keep Rahab and her family alive when they conquered Jericho and killed everyone else. You can read about Rahab in Joshua 2:1–21 and Joshua 6:22–25. You might want to include this information in a footnote.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τοῖς ἀπειθήσασιν
˱with˲_the_‹ones› /having/_disbelieved
Here, the phrase the ones having disobeyed refers to everyone else who lived in Jericho. They did not respond to God and God’s people like Rahab did, so the author describes them as “disobedient.” If it would be helpful in your language, you could make who the ones having disobeyed are more explicit. Alternate translation: “with everyone else in Jericho who disobeyed” or “with the people who lived in Jericho and who disobeyed”
Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result
δεξαμένη
/having/_received
Here, the phrase having welcomed introduces the reason or cause for why Rahab did not perish. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make this relationship more explicit. Alternate translation: “since she welcomed” or “for she welcomed”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τοὺς κατασκόπους
the spies
Here, the word spies refers to men whom Joshua had sent out to examine what the people and cities in the promised land were like before he and the Israelites attacked. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to this kind of task. Alternate translation: “the scouts” or “those sent to investigate the land”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
μετ’ εἰρήνης
with peace
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of peace, you could express the idea by using an adverb such as “peacefully.” Alternate translation: “who had peacefully received the spies”
