Ezequiel 18:12

Listen to Ezequiel 18:12
12 oprime al pobre y al necesitado, comete robo, no devuelve la prenda, que levanta sus ojos a los ídolos y comete abominación,

Ezequiel 18:12 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:12

Hath oppressed the poor and needy
Who are weak, and have none to help them, and stand by them, and so are oppressed by such a man. This serves to explain the clause, in ( Ezekiel 18:7 ) ; hath spoiled by violence;
his neighbour's goods; taken them away from him by force: hath not restored the pledge;
to the borrower before sunset, but kept it for his own use; taking the advantage of the poverty of him that borrowed of him: and hath lifted up his eyes to the idols;
whether of the Gentiles, or of the house of Israel: hath committed abomination;
either idolatry, the sin just before mentioned, which was an abomination to the Lord; or else approaching to a menstruous woman, since this follows the other in ( Ezekiel 18:6 ) ; and is not mentioned, unless it is designed here; and so Kimchi interprets it; but Jarchi understands it of the abominable and detestable sin of sodomy: it may regard any and every sin that is abominable in the sight of God.

Ezequiel 18:12 In-Context

10 Pero si engendra un hijo violento que derrama sangre y que hace cualquiera de estas cosas a un hermano
11 (aunque él mismo no hizo ninguna de estas cosas), que también come en los santuarios de los montes y amancilla a la mujer de su prójimo,
12 oprime al pobre y al necesitado, comete robo, no devuelve la prenda, que levanta sus ojos a los ídolos y comete abominación,
13 que presta a interés y exige con usura; ¿vivirá? ¡No vivirá! Ha cometido todas estas abominaciones, ciertamente morirá; su sangre será sobre él.
14 Mas he aquí, si engendra un hijo que observa todos los pecados que su padre ha cometido, y viéndolo no hace lo mismo,
