Yehoshua 22:13-20 יהושע כ״ב:י״ג-כ׳

And the children of Yisra᾽el sent to the children of Re᾽uven, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Menashshe, into the land of Gil῾ad, Pineĥas the son of El῾azar the priest,

and with him ten princes, of each chief house a prince throughout all the tribes of Yisra᾽el; and each one a headman of the house of their fathers among the thousands of Yisra᾽el.

And they came to the children of Re᾽uven, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Menashshe, to the land of Gil῾ad, and they spoke with them, saying,

Thus says the whole congregation of the Lord, What trespass is this that you have committed against the God of Yisra᾽el, to turn away this day from following the Lord, by building for yourselves an altar, that you might rebel this day against the Lord?

Is the iniquity of Pe῾or too little for us, from which we have not been cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the Lord,

but that you must turn away this day from following the Lord? and it will be, if you rebel to day against the Lord, that to morrow he will be angry with the whole congregation of Yisra᾽el.

Howbeit, if the land of your possession be unclean, then pass over to the land of the possession of the Lord, where the Lord’s tabernacle dwells, and take possession among us: but rebel not against the Lord, nor rebel against us, in building an altar for yourselves besides the altar of the Lord our God.

Did not ῾Akhan the son of Zeraĥ commit a trespass in regard to the devoted property, and wrath fell on all the congregation of Yisra᾽el? and that man perished not alone in his iniquity.
