“For the Lord your God is God in heaven above and on earth below.”
This is an Israelite confession of faith. And here we find it on the lips of Rahab, the Canaanite prostitute. This woman lives in a polytheistic, multi-god culture, and all she has ever known in in her upbringing and in her culture is the worship of many gods. And now she herself declares, “Your Lord, he is God. He is God over all!” There is no other God that is active or preeminent in the world. That is her conclusion about who God is. He is the real thing. The only true and living God. He's the only God that matters, and therefore the only one worthy of allegiance and trust.
