But were you listening at SS. Rahab lied about the spies to shield them and was honored because of her faith even though she lied. That is the significance of introducing Rahab when accusations of deception (jokingly I hope) were made against a great "moderator".
As this was a bit of an in joke for Jews and Christians I thought I should include you.
ps. it seems there was no deception in this case anyway.
