Konteks

Achan Sins and is Punished

7:1 But the Israelites disobeyed the command about the city’s riches.¹ Achan son of Carmi, son of Zabdi,² son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, stole some of the riches.³ The Lord was furious with the Israelites.⁴

[7:1] ¹tn Heb “But the sons of Israel were unfaithful with unfaithfulness concerning what was set apart [to the Lord].”

[7:1] ²tn 1 Chr 2:6 lists a “Zimri” (but no Zabdi) as one of the five sons of Zerah (cf. also 1 Chr 7:17, 18).

[7:1] ³tn Heb “took from what was set apart [to the Lord].”

[7:1] ⁴tn Heb “the anger of the Lord burned against the sons of Israel.”

[7:1] sn This incident illustrates well the principle of corporate solidarity and corporate guilt. The sin of one man brought the Lord’s anger down upon the entire nation.
