The Israelites, however, were unfaithful regarding the things set apart for destruction. Achan son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of what was set apart, and the Lord’s anger burned against the Israelites.

However, Israel did not burn any of the cities that stood on their mounds except Hazor, which Joshua burned.

However, when the Israelites grew stronger, they imposed forced labor on the Canaanites but did not drive them out completely.
