And all Israel stoned hym with stones, and burned them with fire, and ouerwhelmed them with stones.

Psalms 104:6
Thou coueredst it with the deepe, lyke as with a garment: the waters stande vpon the hilles.
Jeremiah 3:23
Truely, in vayne is health hoped for from the hylles, be they neuer so many: but the health of Israel standeth only vpon God our Lorde.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Achan answered Joshua, and said,.... He made a free and open confession of his sin:

indeed I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel; against him who had been so good to Israel in many instances, and particularly in delivering Jericho into their hands in so extraordinary a manner; against a law of his, respecting the spoil of that city, which sin was the more aggravated thereby; and that he had committed the sin he was taken for and charged with, he owns was a true and real fact:

and thus and thus have I done; such and such things have I taken, and in the manner as follows.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Joshua 7:20. I have sinned against the Lord God — This seems a very honest and hearty confession, and there is hope that this poor culprit escaped perdition.
