Joshua 7:11

¹¹Israel on tehnyt syntiä, he ovat rikkoneet minun liittoni, jonka minä olen heille säätänyt; he ovat ottaneet sitä, mikä oli vihitty tuhon omaksi, he ovat varastaneet ja valhetelleet, he ovat panneet sen omain tavarainsa joukkoon.

Joshua 7 dramatically shifts the narrative from triumph to tragedy, immediately following Israel's miraculous victory at Jericho. The chapter details Israel's defeat at Ai, not due to military weakness, but because of Achan's sin in taking devoted plunder from Jericho. This act of disobedience brings God's judgment upon the entire community, leading to a painful process of discovery, confession, and execution of Achan and his family. The chapter underscores the severe consequences of individual sin on the corporate body and God's unwavering holiness.
