Bible Question (short): How could Rahab be mother of Boaz? |
Question (full): In Matthew 1:5, Rahab is listed as the mother of Boaz. This forum has stated that this was the same Rahab as in Joshua 3. However, is there not a significant timeline between when Joshua crossed the Jordan river and when Solomon was born. My time estimate is that this time gap is something on the order of 200-300 years. How could this have been possible? Is this the only place in the bible that lists this feature about Rahab? |
