There were many caves along the steep slopes to the north of Jericho where the spies could hide until it was safe to return to the Israelite camp with the good news that they had acquired from Rahab.
Di sepanjang lereng pegunungan, ada banyak gua yang bisa dipakai bersembunyi sampai keadaan lebih aman untuk kembali ke perkemahan orang Israel dan memberi tahu kabar baik yang mereka dengar dari Rahab.
