Ezekiel 18:11 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:11

And that doeth not any of those [duties]
Before mentioned, which his father did, but the reverse of them; and so the Septuagint and Arabic versions render it, "and in the way of his righteous father does not walk"; does not tread in his steps, and work righteousness as he did: but even hath eaten upon the mountains, and defiled his neighbour's
wife;
has been guilty of idolatry and adultery; (See Gill on Ezekiel 18:6).

Ezekiel 18:11 In-Context

9 Hath walked in my commandments, and kept my judgments, to do truth: he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord God.
10 And if he beget a son that is a robber, a shedder of blood, and that hath done some one of these things:
11 Though he doth not all these things, but that eateth upon the mountains, and that defileth his neighbour’s wife:
12 That grieveth the needy and the poor, that taketh away by violence, that restoreth not the pledge, and that lifteth up his eyes to idols, that comitteth abomination:
13 That giveth upon usury, and that taketh an increase: shall such a one live? he shall not live. Seeing he hath done all these detestable things, he shall surely die, his blood shall be upon him.
