Joshua 7:1

Then Moses said to Aaron and to his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Do not uncover your heads nor tear your clothes, so that you will not die and that He will not become wrathful against all the congregation. But your relatives, the whole house of Israel, shall weep over the burning which Yahweh has brought about.

“But as for you, only keep yourselves from the things devoted to destruction, lest as you are devoting them to destruction, you also take some of the things devoted to destruction and make the camp of Israel devoted to destruction and bring trouble on it.

‘Did not Achan the son of Zerah act unfaithfully in the things devoted to destruction, and indignation fall on all the congregation of Israel? But he was not the only man to breathe his last in his iniquity.’”

So he came to the hill, and he took them from their hand and deposited them in the house. Then he sent the men away, and they departed.

The son of Carmi was Achar, the troubler of Israel, who violated what was devoted to destruction.

Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.
