March 30–April 4 ❘ Rahab’s Passover

Rahab’s Passover

Salvation is a scarlet cord
as red as lamb’s blood
offered by Joshua’s spies
as a sign to set apart
one house and those hidden within,

to preserve a family line
as a blessing for all nations
through another Joshua—
long-awaited Son offering
scarlet tokens of salvation.
