Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the sons of Carmi,.... The Targum adds, this is Zimri; but in Joshua 7:1 Carmi is said to be the son of Zabdi, who seems to be the same with Zimri; and some supply the word here, and read o the sons of Zimri, Carmi, Achar, who was the grandson of Zimri; his proper name was Achan, Joshua 7:1, but called Achar here by way of reproach, as Jarchi and others observe; being, as it follows,
the troubler of Israel, as Achar signifies: "who transgressed in the thing accursed"; devoted to the Lord, by taking it away for his own use, see Joshua 6:17, hence the valley in which he was put to death was called Achor, Joshua 6:26.
o So Junius & Tremellius, & Piscator.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
âAchanâ Joshua 7:1 seems to have become âAchar,â in order to assimilate the word more closely to the Hebrew term for âtroubler,â which was from the time of Achanâs sin regarded as the true meaning of his name Joshua 7:25-26.
