# the things that were set apart for destruction

"the things that God had said they must set apart to him by destroying them"

# Achan ... Karmi ... Zabdi ... Zerah

These are names of men. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-names]])

# Yahweh's anger burned

"anger" and "burned" indicates intensity, not that fire is present. Alternate translation: "Yahweh's anger burned like a fire" or "Yahweh was very angry" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
