Is the Rahab that helped Joshua the same Rahab mentioned in the lineage of Christ?
In the Bible, her name was 'Rahab'. At Joshua chapters 2 through 6, Rahab was instrumental in helping the Israelites in their conquest of Jericho. She hid the two spies that Joshua had sent to spy out the land. And yes, she is the same Rahab mentioned in the lineage of Jesus Christ. Interestingly, Rahab and Bath-sheba were the not Israelite women, but they purified themselves and became Hebrew by marriage. Jesus' earthly mother Mary was the only Jewish woman mentioned in the Bible as an ancestress.
Was Simon the same person as Peter in the bible?
Yes.
Was Rahab in Jericho the same Rahab as in Jesus' genealogy?
A:There are two genealogies of Jesus, through his father Joseph and back through the male line - one in Matthew's Gospel and one in Luke's Gospel, and it is in Matthew's version that we see Rahab as an ancestor of Jesus. Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that there is little likelihood that the genealogy in either Matthew or Luke is strictly historical. Quite simply, neither author knew anything about the infancy and ancestry of Jesus, but felt that their readers needed to be told something. Scholars also say that the battle of Jericho never took place as described in the Bible, and there was never a Rahab of Jericho. The author of Matthew was simply writing Christian midrash, placing Rahab in Jesus' ancestry for theological reasons.Another thought:Yes. The Bible says that Rahab did indeed became an ancestress of Jesus.(Matthew 1:5+6/Ruth 4:20-22) Formerly a prostitute, she hid two Israelite men who were spying out the land of Canaan(Joshua 2:1-7)in 1473 BCE, and because of her faithfulness, was spared at the fall of Jericho, becoming a worshiper of YHWH. (Hebrews 11:30+31; James 2:25)(Joshua 2:15; Joshua 6:17,22-23+25).

How is Rehab an ancestress to Jesus Christ?
A:English translations from Hebrew can sometimes spell names differently, but the differences are not significant. Rehab is also spelt Rahab and Rachab. Matthew 1:5 says that Salmon and Rachab were the parents of Booz the great-grandfather of King David, who was then, according to Matthew, the ancestor of Joseph. This genealogy echoes the much older genealogy in Ruth 4:20, with Salmon the father of Boaz, but this time no mention of Rahab.The Rahab mentioned in Matthew is widely considered by Christians to have been the prostitute Rahab in the story of Jericho (Book of Joshua), but the Jewish Talmud says she married Joshua, which if true would mean that Matthew's Rachab was a different person. However, it does seem that Matthew probably intended her to be the very same person as the prostitute in the Book of Joshua, although there is no Old Testament ground for this claim.An even more serious problem for Matthew's placing of Rahab in the lineage of Jesus is that New Testament scholars say it could not be a true genealogy of either Joseph or Jesus, with Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that there is little likelihood that it is strictly historical.

Rahab is mentioned in the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew, highlighting her significance as an ancestor of Jesus.
