Contextual Overview

¹⁶ Early the next morning Joshua led all of Israel to present themselves in their tribes, and the Lord chose the tribe of Judah. ¹⁷ So the family groups of Judah presented themselves, and the Lord then chose the family group of Zerah. When all the families of Zerah presented themselves, the family of Zabdi was chosen. ¹⁸ And Joshua told all the men in that family to present themselves. The Lord chose Achan son of Carmi. (Carmi was the son of Zabdi, who was the son of Zerah.) ¹⁹ Then Joshua said to Achan, "My son, tell the truth. Confess to the Lord , the God of Israel. Tell me what you did, and don't try to hide anything from me." ²⁰ Achan answered, "It is true! I have sinned against the Lord , the God of Israel. This is what I did: ²¹ Among the things I saw was a beautiful coat from Babylonia and about five pounds of silver and more than one and one-fourth pounds of gold. I wanted these things very much for myself, so I took them. You will find them buried in the ground under my tent, with the silver underneath." ²² So Joshua sent men who ran to the tent and found the things hidden there, with the silver. ²³ The men brought them out of the tent, took them to Joshua and all the Israelites, and spread them out on the ground before the Lord . ²⁴ Then Joshua and all the people led Achan son of Zerah to the Valley of Trouble. They also took the silver, the coat, the gold, Achan's sons, daughters, cattle, donkeys, sheep, tent, and everything he owned. ²⁵ Joshua said, "I don't know why you caused so much trouble for us, but now the Lord will bring trouble to you." Then all the people threw stones at Achan and his family until they died. Then the people burned them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So Joshua sent messengers,.... Directly to Achan's tent, to see if it was as he had said, and to bring the things with them:

and they ran unto the tent; either for joy that the iniquity was discovered, as Kimchi; or that none of the tribe of Judah or of Achan's family or relations should get there before them, and take them from thence and make void the lot; so Jarchi, Ben Gersom, and Abarbinel; but, no doubt, it is remarked, to show the readiness and diligence of the messengers to obey the order of Joshua:

and, behold, [it was] hid in his tent, and the silver under it; as Achan had said.
