ความ โลภ ของ อา คาน

Achan kneels inside his tent, glancing over his shoulder as he conceals forbidden spoil beneath the floor covering. Beside him rest costly goods, a basket of valuables, and household vessels, while the camp of Israel stands beyond the tent opening. The scene portrays the sin after the fall of Jericho, when Achan took what had been devoted to the Lord and hid it among his possessions.

The artwork centers on the biblical warning in Joshua 7: private disobedience brings public consequence. Achan’s secret greed is shown not as a distant moral failure, but as a hidden act within the ordinary space of family and camp. The buried treasure becomes a symbol of covetousness, deception, and the danger of keeping what God has commanded to be set apart.
