The Children of Israel were defeated because Achan did not obey God's command to not covet or to take things that were consecrated to God for himself:
Joshua 6: 18-19
But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD. .
In Joshua 7, Achan confesses to his sin:
20 And Achan answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done: 21 When I saw among the spoils a goodly Babylonish garment, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.

What was the second city destroyed by Joshua?
A:According to Joshua chapter 8, Joshua destroyed the city of Ai after having captured and destroyed Jericho. However, the city of Ai did not exist at the time of Joshua. It had not existed for eight centuries before the Bible says that Joshua conquered it, having been abandoned in ruins around 2200 BCE. The very name Ai means 'Ruins', the name eventually given to the site by the Hebrew people because they never knew its old name and only ever knew it literally as ruins. Archaeologists say that neither Jericho nor Ai was conquered or destroyed by the Israelites.

When did Moses start the Exodus?
Traditionally, the Exodus from Egypt is believed to have occurred around 1440 BCE, based on genealogies in the Bible. However, archaeological and historical evidence indicates that the Exodus could not have occurred this early, if it occurred at all. During the period around 1440 BCE, Egyptian power in Palestine was at its peak: effectively the Israelites would have been fleeing from Egypt into Egyptian occupied territory, yet the Bible never even mentions the existence of Egyptian troops throughout the Promised Land. And the Amarna documents show that even a century later, Egypt was in firm control throughout Palestine and Syria, with Canaanite and Indo-Aryan princes vying for the Pharoahs support in their petty internal wars. It is reported that over ninety percent of scholars do not believe that there was an Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible.

What happened to Achan and his family according to the bible?
After the fall of Jericho, the Israelites were instructed to take riches for God, but Achan, seeing a beautiful garment and silver and gold, took some for himself and buried it beneath the family tent. When the Israelites were about to take Ai, Joshua sent scouts ahead and they returned telling him that it would take less men than they thought to take Ai, so Joshua sent only 3000 men to defeat Ai. Ai however met them and there was much bloodshed for the Israelites. When Joshua heard of this he asked God, why God were we defeated when You said that You would be with us? God replied that Israel had sinned against Him and that Joshua was to gather the people the next day and that God would tell him who sinned. The next day, God, by telling them that the offender was from the tribe Achan was from, but Achan did not think they would think it was him because there were hundreds in his tribe. Then God named the family that was to blame and then the person, Achan, from that family. Achan confessed to Joshua what he had taken and where he had hidden it. Joshua told the people that Achan had sinned against God and had to be punished. Achan was then killed and all his possessions burned.
