Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:
[ACHAN.] (Hos.2:15).
Concise Bible Dictionary:
Achor signifies “trouble,” and was the place where Achan was stoned for having troubled Israel by taking the accursed thing (Josh. 7:26). The valley was between Jericho and Ai, on the border of the tribe of Judah. Identified with Wady Kelt, 31° 50' N, 35° 24' E. It will be a door of hope to Israel — putting away evil from among themselves, national self-judgment — in the future, when they call to mind that it was there that God’s judgment began to fall on them, followed by blessing: so the tribulation of the latter day will usher in blessing (Hos. 2:15; Isa. 65:10).
