Quod si verum est quod objicit, et non est in puella inventa virginitas,
Nonne Achan filius Zare pr�teriit mandatum Domini, et super omnem populum Isra�l ira ejus incubuit? et ille erat unus homo, atque utinam solum periisset in scelere suo.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Did not Achan the son of Zerah,.... One that descended from Zerah the son of Judah, Joshua 7:18;
commit a trespass in the accursed thing; in taking what was devoted to sacred uses:
and wrath fell on all the congregation of Israel? and which was what was feared now; and this instance is brought to show that such fears were not groundless:
and that man perished not alone in his iniquity: which seems to confirm the notion of those who think that his children suffered with him; though it may be observed, that it was through his sin that thirty six men were slain by the men of Ai, Joshua 7:5.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Joshua 22:20. Did not Achan the son of Zerah — Your sin will not be merely against yourselves; your transgressions will bring down the wrath of God upon all the people; this was the case in the transgression of Achan; he alone sinned, and yet God on that account turned his face against the whole congregation, so that they fell before their enemies. We cannot therefore be unconcerned spectators of your transgression, we may all be implicated in its criminality; let this and the dishonour which we apprehend is done to our God plead our excuse, and vindicate the necessity of the present warlike appearance which we make before you. See the history of Achan referred to here, (Joshua 7:11-26), and the notes there.
