About This Artwork

Achan Is Stoned to Death. Portrait done over Joshua 7:24-26 by Gustave Dore'. Then Joshua and all Israel with him took Achan son of Zerah, with the silver, the mantle, and the bar of gold, together with his sons and daughters, his oxen, his donkeys, and his sheep, his tent, and everything he had... Then all the Israelites stoned him to death; and they raised over him a great cairn of stones which is there to this day. (Joshua 7:24-26) http://catholic-resources.org/Dore/Images/OT-050-med.jpg
