Joshua 7:1 Become Accursed!

 1The Israelites, however, acted unfaithfully regarding the things devoted to destruction. Achan son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of what was set apart. So the anger of the LORD burned against the Israelites.

Jos 6:18 NKJV - 18 "And you, by all means abstain from the accursed things, lest you become accursed when you take of the accursed things, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

“The wars fought by Israel in Canaan were not to be plundering wars of personal gain; they were an unusual, sacred instrument in God’s hand, used for judgment against a society ripe for judgment.” (Guzik)

Become Accursed

Three sons of the tribe of Judah did not abstain and took some of what was set apart, thereby making the camp of Israel a curse. 

“So the anger of the LORD burned against the Israelites.”

Beloved, when a family member sins against the Lord will that sin affect the whole family as it did to the tribe of Judah?

Stay tuned to study the consequences for the Israelites!
