Whom do the Hebrew spies stay with when they go to scout out the city of Jericho?
They're accommodated in the home of Rachov (Rahab), immediately adjacent to the city's wall. Later, during the conquest of the city, she and her family are rewarded for that hospitality and protection. Joshua ch.2.
How did Joshua and Caleb propose the conquest of Canaan?
The Book of Numbers tells how Moses sent spies into the land of Canaan to report back on the strengths of the people and their defences. This is told in the"Spies Narrative" in Numbers chapters 13 and 14. However, there are actually two different spies narratives, so cleverly conflated as to appear to the casual reader to be a single, if rather complex, narrative. One account is told from the perspective of the southern Hebrew kingdom of Judah, for whom Caleb was their great military hero. In this account (Numbers 13:17b-20,22-25,27-31, 14:1b,4), Moses dispatched the spies, but the spies travelled only as far north as Hebron (in the future kingdom of Judah). The spies returned and issued their report to one person (Moses), stating that the land was 'flowing with milk and honey', but that the inhabitants were giants and and their cities fortified. Caleb alone tried to encourage the Israelites to proceed with the conquest. The spies countered Caleb's claim, stating that the land was unconquerable. The people refused to enter Canaan and plotted to elect a new captain to lead them back to Egypt. The conquest of Canaan was eventually accomplished under the leadership of Caleb in Judges chapter 1. The other account was developed much later, by the Priestly Source, and seeks to support a continued claim to the long-lost territory that had once been the northern kingdom of Israel. It makes the legendary northern military leader, Joshua, the leader of the spies and the conqueror who would totally destroy the cities of Canaan, in the Book of Joshua. At God's command, Moses appointed twelve heads of tribes to scout the land, and dispached them from the Wilderness of Paran. The spies toured the entire Promised Land, 'from the Wilderness of Zin to the entrance to Hamath'. The spies returned and displayed the land's fruit. They issued their report to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation, stating that Canaan was not only unconquerable, but a 'land that devours its inhabitants'. Caleb and Joshua tried to encourage the Israelites to proceed with the conquest. The Israelites responded by calling for them to be stoned. (Numbers 13:1-17a,21,25-26,32-33, 14:1a,2-3,6-10a) Neither account provides a detailed explanation of how Caleb or Joshua intended to overcome the difficulties they knew they would face. This is confirmed by the Israelites refusing to enter Canaan and, in one case wanting to be led back to Egypt, and in the other case threatening to stone Joshua and Caleb.

Were there giants in Canaan?
Anakim, a race of people of extraordinary size, lived in the mountainous and coastal regions of Canaan . Three are mentioned in the Bible: Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, who resided at Hebron. (Numbers 13:22)The 12 Hebrew spies first saw them there and 10 of the spies gave a frightening report of the experience, claiming that these men were Nephilim. (Numbers 13:28-33; Deuteronomy 1:28) Large men of the Emim and the Rephaim were likened to them.(Deuteronomy 2:10, 11, 20, 21; 9:1-3)"... a people great and tall, the sons of An′a‧kim, about whom you yourself have known and you yourself have heard it said, 'Who can make a firm stand before the sons of A′nak?"(1 Chronicles 20:4-6) "...a man of extraordinary size whose fingers and toes were in sixes, twenty-four; and he, too, had been born to the Rephaim."(Joshua 11:21, 22)Joshua destroyed the Anakim of Canaan, in..." the mountainous region, from He′bron, from De′bir, from A′nab and from all the mountainous region of Judah and from all the mountainous region of Israel. Along with their cities Joshua devoted them to destruction. No An′a‧kim were left in the land of the sons of Israel. It was only in (the Philistine cities of)Ga′za, in Gath and in Ash′dod that they remained. "
