Joshua 2:4

And the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said thus, There came men unto me, but I know not from where they were:
All Commentaries on Joshua 2:4 Go To Joshua 2

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Hid, or "had hidden "as (ver. 6,) she had made the men retire before she spoke to the messengers, and probably before they came to demand them. As soon as she was informed of their design, she took all prudent precautions both for her own and their safety, as she could not have escaped death, if she had been discovered affording shelter to the enemies of her country. She felt herself authorized by God on this occasion, to abandon those upon whom he had declared war, and who could have derived no benefit from the spies being betrayed to them. (Haydock)
