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 »Ahora bien, ese hijo podría a su vez tener un hijo que observa todos los pecados de su padre, pero no los imita,
15 pues no participa de los banquetes idolátricos en los cerros, ni eleva plegarias a los ídolos de Israel, ni deshonra a la mujer de su prójimo;
16 no oprime a nadie, no roba, devuelve la prenda al deudor, da de comer al hambriento y viste al desnudo;
17 se abstiene de hacer el mal, no presta dinero con usura ni exige intereses; cumple mis leyes y obedece mis decretos. Un hijo así no merece morir por la maldad de su padre; ¡merece vivir!
18 En cuanto a su padre, que fue un opresor, que robó a su prójimo y que hizo lo malo en medio de su pueblo, ¡morirá por su propio pecado!
