It was all credited to her as righteousness.
Rahab’s act of faith not only saved her entire family in a city that perished but set the pattern of simple faith by righteous actions for generations to come. Rahab was one of four women that received an honorable mention in the genealogy of Christ. From biblical history, we know that Rahab married Salmon, the father of Boaz and the great-great grandfather of King David.
