Joshua 7:16-19

Context

7:16 Bright and early the next morning Joshua made Israel approach in tribal order 1  and the tribe of Judah was selected. 7:17 He then made the clans of Judah approach and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He made the clan of the Zerahites approach and Zabdi 2  was selected. 3  7:18 He then made Zabdi’s 4  family approach man by man 5  and Achan son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, was selected. 7:19 So Joshua said to Achan, “My son, honor 6  the Lord God of Israel and give him praise! Tell me what you did; don’t hide anything from me!”

[7:16]  1 tn Heb “by tribes.”

[7:17]  2 tn See the note on “Zabdi” in 1 Chr 7:1.

[7:17]  3 tn Heb “and he selected Zabdi.” The Lord is the apparent subject. The LXX supports reading a passive (Niphal) form here, as does the immediate context.

[7:18]  3 tn Heb “his”; the referent (Zabdi) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[7:18]  4 tn Heb “by men.”

[7:19]  4 tn Heb “give glory to.”
