Ezequiel 18:16

Listen to Ezequiel 18:16
16 que no oprime a nadie, ni retiene la prenda, ni comete robo, sino que da su pan al hambriento y cubre al desnudo con ropa,

Ezequiel 18:16 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:16

Neither hath oppressed any (See Gill on Ezekiel 18:7). hath not withholden the pledge;
or, hath not pledged the pledge F8. The meaning is, not that he had not given one, but had not taken one. So the Targum,

``the pledge he hath not taken;''
or, if he did, he did not keep it beyond the time the law directs, but restored it to him whose it was; neither hath spoiled by violence, [but] hath given his bread to the
hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment.
The rest of the verse is the same with ( Ezekiel 18:7 ) .
FOOTNOTES:

F8 (lbx al lbx) "pignus non pignoravit", Vatablus; "pignus non acceperit in pignus", Pagninus; "pignori", Montanus.

Ezequiel 18:16 In-Context

14 Mas he aquí, si engendra un hijo que observa todos los pecados que su padre ha cometido, y viéndolo no hace lo mismo,
15 no come en los santuarios de los montes, ni levanta sus ojos a los Ă­dolos de la casa de Israel, ni amancilla a la mujer de su prĂłjimo,
16 que no oprime a nadie, ni retiene la prenda, ni comete robo, sino que da su pan al hambriento y cubre al desnudo con ropa,
17 que retrae su mano del pobre , no cobra interés ni usura, cumple mis ordenanzas y anda en mis estatutos, ése no morirá por la iniquidad de su padre, ciertamente vivirá.
18 Su padre, que practicó la extorsión, robó a su hermano e hizo lo que no era bueno en medio de su pueblo, he aquí, morirá por su iniquidad.
