Ezekiel 33:16 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 33:16

None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned
unto him
Imputed to him; placed to his account; charged upon him, or ever be spoke of to him, either now, or at the day of judgment, by way of accusation and complaint, or to his condemnation: he hath done that which is lawful and right;
has repented of his sin; looked to Christ by faith for the pardon of it; and laid hold on his righteousness for his justification; and being influenced and assisted by the grace of God, has done that which is right and good in the sight of God and man: he shall surely live;
he now lives a life of faith and holiness; he shall continue to live, and persevere to the end, and inherit eternal life; see ( Ezekiel 18:21 Ezekiel 18:22 ) .

Ezekiel 33:16 In-Context

14 And when I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; if he is turned from his sin and does what is ordered and right;
15 If the evil-doer lets one who is in his debt have back what is his, and gives back what he had taken by force, and is guided by the rules of life, doing no evil; life will certainly be his, death will not overtake him.
16 Not one of the sins which he has done will be kept in mind against him: he has done what is ordered and right, life will certainly be his.
17 But the children of your people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: when it is they whose way is not equal.
18 When the upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, death will overtake him in it.
