Ezequiel 18:27 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:27

Again, when the wicked [man] turneth away from his wickedness
that he hath committed
Repents of his sins, and forsakes the vicious course of life he has lived: and doeth that which is lawful and right;
or "judgment" and "righteousness" F14; that which is agreeable to the law and will of God, and is just and right between man and man: he shall save his soul alive;
from famine, pestilence, the sword, or captivity; he shall be preserved, and not be involved in calamities and distress: or, "shall quicken his own soul" F15; which, in a spiritual sense, is only done by the Spirit and grace of God, and not by man himself; nor is the enjoyment of eternal life by the works of men, but through the grace of God, and righteousness of Christ.

Ezequiel 18:27 In-Context

25 »Ustedes dicen: “El SEÑOR es injusto”. Pero escucha, pueblo de Israel: ¿En qué soy injusto? ¿No son más bien ustedes los injustos?
26 Cuando el justo se aparta de la justicia, cae en la maldad y muere, ¡pero muere por su maldad!
27 Por otra parte, si el malvado se aleja de su maldad y practica el derecho y la justicia, salvará su vida.
28 Si recapacita y se aparta de todas sus maldades, no morirá sino que vivirá.
29 »Sin embargo, el pueblo de Israel anda diciendo: “El SEÑOR es injusto”. Pueblo de Israel, ¿en qué soy injusto? ¿No son más bien ustedes los injustos?
