Pistis with Us: Vindicating the Vixens- Rehab the Canaanite

On this episode, I speak with Dr. Eva Bleeker about her contribution to "Vindicating the Vixens: Revisiting Sexualized, Vilified, and Marginalized Women of the Bible." Dr. Bleeker wrote an inspiring chapter on Rahab of the Canaanites, revealing how many people do not understand her place in the narrative and how we should read and understand such a beautiful and complex story.

Topics discussed:

1. The Israelite entrance into the land of Canaan
2. Removal of identity rather than annihilation
3. The love of God for all peoples
4. Rahab theCanaanite as the revealer of the character of Yahweh within an Israelite text
