    I agree times change, but we should also agree that God doesn't. Nor does His word.

    The "innkeeper" is misleading and all versions that interpret it this way are wrong.

    Unless of course you'd like to also attack that Scarlet Thread of Redemption?:D

    I am convinced now that Rahab was in fact a harlot, who probably ran an inn. The NT description of Rahab in James, along with the same Greek word in Joshua 2, (from the LXX) pretty well settles it for me.
