Sorta interesting, if a possible play on the word cut and rahab.

There's this rahab.

Rahab = "breadth"
1) storm, arrogance (but only as names)
a) mythical sea monster
b) emblematic name of Egypt

To which the Is. 51:9 refers.

But also Rahab (spelled differently in Hebrew) the harlot with whom God "cut" a covenant, she not perishing while unbelievers did (Hbr. 11:31).
