James 2:25 Spies or Messengers?
#1
According to the Peshitta, Rachab received 2 spies but according to the Greek text,they were messengers.

I think the Greek text is simply wrong here.

I notice some big English translations of the Greek have spies as well. These men were sent to spy out the land, not bring a message to those living there. That was to come later.

Is there any correct Greek where it has 'spies' or did the English translator correct the Greek?
