How do you spell spies?
The correct spelling is spies, just as you spelled it. The black team sent one spy, but the blue team sent 20 spies.
Who was the harlot of Jericho who hid the two spies?
The harlot of Jericho who hid the two spies was Rahab. She assisted the Israelite spies by hiding them on her roof and helping them escape capture. In return for her kindness, the spies promised to spare her and her family when they conquered Jericho.
How long were the israelites in the wilderness before the spies were sent?
The Israelites entered the wilderness on the 16th of Nisan, 1312 BCE, the day after the Exodus. The spies (Numbers ch.13) were sent on the 29th of Sivan of the second year (Talmud, Taanit 29a). So your answer is that the spies were sent when the Israelites had been in the wilderness for one year and two-and-one-half months. See also:More about the Spies and other complaints

What are 3 dangerous things Rahab did to help the Israelite spies?
One of the most famous episodes in the biblical conquest of Canaan was the assault on the city of Jericho. As a prelude to the attack on the city, Joshua sent two spies, who found refuge with the harlot, Rahab, who in turn made a covenant to be spared when the attackers slaughtered her fellow citizens.Even if there really had been an assault on Jericho, this is an improbable story, since the spies provided no information of value, and risked their lives when they were unlikely to do so. But archaeologists tell us Jericho did not exist at this time, so there were no spies and no harlot - the spy story just did not happen and we can only surmise how it arose. The simplest answer could lie in that the name Rahab (or Rachab) is very similar to the Hebrew verb rāhab, generally translated as either "to beset, storm or assault" or "to be proud/arrogant". If Joshua was about to storm or assault Jericho, this could have given rise to the story of Rahab helping the Hebrew spies.
Why is Rahab in the bible so special?
Rahab was a prostitute that lived in Jericho and helped Joshua's spies to escape being found by the king of Jericho. They promised to spare her and her family's life for her help, and followed through on this promise before destroying the rest of Jericho. Rahab is especially important, however, because she is one of Jesus' ancestors.
Where in the Bible can one find the story of Jericho?
The story of Jericho is found in the Bible book of Joshua chapters 2 - the account of the two spies and chapter 6 - the conquest.
Were Rahab and her family the only survivors of the destruction of Jericho?
Yes, that is what the text implies (Joshua 6:21). Rahab and her family were allowed to depart in peace, as stated explicitly, that the Israelites did "as they had sworn (6:22)," to spare her entire family (2:18).
