Question source
Joshua
After the devoted items were brought out, Achan and what belonged to him were taken to the Valley of Achor Joshua 7:24. The account says all Israel stoned him and raised over him a great heap of stones, and the LORD turned from his burning anger Joshua 7:25–26.
24Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the mantle, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his donkeys, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them up to the valley of Achor.
25Joshua said, Why have you troubled us? Yahweh shall trouble you this day. All Israel stoned him with stones; and they burned them with fire, and stoned them with stones.
26They raised over him a great heap of stones, to this day; and Yahweh turned from the fierceness of his anger. Therefore the name of that place was called "The valley of Achor" to this day.
