Ezekiel 33:14 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 33:14

Again, when I say unto the wicked, thou shalt surely die
That is, provided he continues in the same course of life, impenitent and unbelieving: but if he turn from his sin;
repent of it, and forsake it: and do that which is lawful and right;
or "judgment and justice"; do that which is agreeably to the law of God, and what is right between man and man; lives soberly, righteously, and godly, as well as denies ungodliness and worldly lusts; whereby it appears that his repentance is genuine and true.

Ezekiel 33:14 In-Context

12 You, human one, say to your people: The righteousness of the righteous doesn't rescue them when they begin to sin. Nor does the wickedness of the wicked make them stumble if they turn from their wickedness. If the righteous sin, their righteousness won't protect them.

13 Even if I've told the righteous they will live, none of their righteous deeds will be remembered if they trust in their righteousness and do wrong. They will die because of their evil deeds.

14 And even if I have pronounced a death sentence on the wicked, if they turn from sin and do what is just and right—

15 if they return pledges, make restitution for robbery, and walk in life-giving regulations in order not to sin—they will live and not die.

16 None of the sins they've committed will be remembered against them. They've done what is just and right, and they will live.
