Joshua 22:20

Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible

Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass concerning the devoted thing, and wrath fell upon all the congregation of Israel? and that man perished not alone in his iniquity.’
Was not Achan (note: Achan means troubler; also called Achar in 1 Chronicles 2:7.) son of Zerah unfaithful regarding what was set apart for destruction (note: Forms of the Hebrew cherem refer to the giving over of things or persons to the LORD, either by destroying them or by giving them as an offering.), bringing wrath upon the whole congregation of Israel? Yet it was not only Achan who perished because of his sin!’”
