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 Apartándose el justo de su justicia, y haciendo iniquidad, él morirá por ello: por su iniquidad que hizo, morirá.

27 Y apartándose el impío de su impiedad que hizo, y haciendo juicio y justicia, hará vivir su alma.

28 Porque miró, y apartóse de todas sus prevaricaciones que hizo, de cierto vivirá, no morirá.

29 Si aun dijere la casa de Israel: No es derecho el camino del Señor: ¿No son derechos mis caminos, casa de Israel? Cierto, vuestros caminos no son derechos.

30 Por tanto, yo os juzgaré á cada uno según sus caminos, oh casa de Israel, dice el Señor Jehová. Convertíos, y volveos de todas vuestras iniquidades; y no os será la iniquidad causa de ruina.
