Read and answer
Read the story first.
Joshua and JerichoJoshua led Israel to the land near the river Jordan. In front of them stood Jericho, a city with tall, thick walls and its gates shut tight. Joshua sent two scouts. A woman named Rahab hid them under bundles of flax on her flat roof, and she asked them to be kind to her family. She lowered them down on a rope, and she hung a red cord in her window. Then Joshua listened to God's plan, and it was a strange one. For six days the army marched around the city once a day, and nobody said a word. Seven priests blew trumpets made from ram's horns. On the seventh day they marched around seven times. Then the people shouted, and the wall fell down flat.
