Ezequiel 18:29

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?

Ezequiel 18:29 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:29

Yet saith the house of Israel, the way of the Lord is not
equal
Though the case was put so many ways, and the thing was made so clear and plain, by the instances given; as, if a man was a just man, let his father be what he would, he should live; but, if his son was a wicked man, he should die; yet, if his son should do well, he should not die for his father's sins, his father only should suffer for his iniquity; and then again, on the one hand, if a seemingly righteous man become an apostate, he should be treated as such; but, on the other hand, if a wicked man repented and reformed, things would go well with him; by all which it most clearly appeared that God did not, and would not, punish children for the sins of their fathers, unless they themselves were guilty of the same; and that the methods of Providence in dealing with men in this world, as they were good or bad, were equal and right, and to be justified: O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?
This is an appeal to their own consciences, upon the evidence before given.

Ezequiel 18:29 In-Context

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?
30 Por tanto, a cada uno de ustedes, los israelitas, los juzgaré según su conducta. Lo afirma el SEÑOR omnipotente. Arrepiéntanse y apártense de todas sus maldades, para que el pecado no les acarree la ruina.
31 Arrojen de una vez por todas las maldades que cometieron contra mí, y háganse de un corazón y de un espíritu nuevos. ¿Por qué habrás de morir, pueblo de Israel?
