Ezequiel 18:28

28 Si recapacita y se aparta de todas sus maldades, no morirá sino que vivirá.

Ezequiel 18:28 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:28

Because he considereth
Being come to himself, and in his right mind, he considers the evil of his ways; what they lead to; what they deserve at the hand of God; and what he may expect, should he continue in them; see ( Ezekiel 18:14 ) ; and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed;
not only repents of them, but reforms from them; and that not from one, or a few of them, but from them "all"; which shows the truth, reality, and sincerity of his repentance; there being a change of mind, a change of actions and conversation follows: he shall surely live, he shall not die; (See Gill on Ezekiel 18:21). Jerom interprets the just man turning from his righteousness, of the Jews leaving the author of righteousness, denying the son of God, and smiting the heir; and the wicked man turning from his wickedness, of the Gentiles, and of their conversion of faith.

Ezequiel 18:28 In-Context

26 Cuando el justo se aparta de la justicia, cae en la maldad y muere, ¡pero muere por su maldad!
27 Por otra parte, si el malvado se aleja de su maldad y practica el derecho y la justicia, salvará su vida.
28 Si recapacita y se aparta de todas sus maldades, no morirá sino que vivirá.
29 »Sin embargo, el pueblo de Israel anda diciendo: “El SEÑOR es injusto”. Pueblo de Israel, ¿en qué soy injusto? ¿No son más bien ustedes los injustos?
30 Por tanto, a cada uno de ustedes, los israelitas, los juzgaré según su conducta. Lo afirma el SEÑOR omnipotente. Arrepiéntanse y apártense de todas sus maldades, para que el pecado no les acarree la ruina.
