What does Joshua 7:1 mean?

But the Israelites broke faith. A man named Achan, from the tribe of Judah, took some of the things that were supposed to be set apart for God. Because of this, the Lord was angry with the whole community. Joshua 7:1 - Modern Text Bible

(One person’s disobedience affects everyone. God’s anger is about the community’s responsibility for each other.)
