220. Rahab the Convert - June 5, 2021

This week we learned about a woman named Rahab who was a successful, non-Israelite businesswoman. She chose to join the Israelite people, which signified to our ancient sages that she had become a convert, and she is the ancestor to many important people in our Bible, including the Prophet Jeremiah and the Prophetess Huldah. And the Christian Bible tells us she was also an ancestor of Jesus.
