Ezequiel 18:18 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:18

[As for] his father
It shall be otherwise with him: because he cruelly oppressed;
or, "oppressed an oppression"; or, "with an oppression" F9; oppressed the poor, and had no mercy on them, but used them in the most rigorous manner: spoiled his brother by violence;
took away the spoil of his brother; spoiled him of his substance; did injury to his person and property, and all the mischief that lay in his power: and did [that] which [is] not good among his people;
neighbours, citizens, and countrymen; did nothing which was good, as he ought to have done; but everything that was bad, which he should not have done: lo, even he shall die in his iniquity:
and for it; it shall not be forgiven him; he shall be punished for it with death, with the death of affliction; and with corporeal death, as a punishment for sin; and with eternal death, dying in his sins, and in a state of impenitence. These instances, put every way, most clearly show the equity of God; the justness of his proceedings in providence; and how inapplicable the proverb in ( Ezekiel 18:2 ) was to them; and that such that sin, and continue therein, shall die for their own iniquities, and not for the sins of others.

Ezequiel 18:18 In-Context

16 Não oprime ninguémnem exige garantia para um empréstimo.Não comete roubos,mas dá a sua comida aos famintose fornece roupas aos despidos.
17 Ele retém a mão para não pecare não empresta visando a algum lucro nem cobra juros.Obedece às minhas leis e age segundo os meus decretos.Ele não morrerá por causa da iniquidade do seu pai; certamente viverá.
18 Mas seu pai morrerá por causa de sua própria iniquidade, pois praticou extorsão, roubou seu compatriota e fez o que era errado no meio de seu povo.
19 “Contudo, vocês perguntam: ‘Por que o filho não partilha da culpa de seu pai?’ Uma vez que o filho fez o que é justo e direito e teve o cuidado de obedecer a todos os meus decretos, com certeza ele viverá.
20 Aquele que pecar é que morrerá. O filho não levará a culpa do pai nem o pai levará a culpa do filho. A justiça do justo lhe será creditada, e a impiedade do ímpio lhe será cobrada.
