Ezekiel 18:22 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 18:22

All his transgressions that he hath committed
Before his repentance, conversion, and obedience: they shall not be mentioned unto him;
they shall not be charged upon his conscience, or brought against him in providence; he shall not be upbraided with them, or punished for them; but they shall be forgiven him, at least in such sense as to prevent temporal calamity and ruin: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live;
he shall live "in" it, though not "for" it; this will be the fruit and consequence of his obedience and righteousness, that he shall live and not die, in the sense that has been already given, according to the tenor of the law, ( Leviticus 18:5 ) .

Ezekiel 18:22 In-Context

20 anima quae peccaverit ipsa morietur filius non portabit iniquitatem patris et pater non portabit iniquitatem filii iustitia iusti super eum erit et impietas impii erit super eum

21 si autem impius egerit paenitentiam ab omnibus peccatis suis quae operatus est et custodierit universa praecepta mea et fecerit iudicium et iustitiam vita vivet non morietur

22 omnium iniquitatum eius quas operatus est non recordabor in iustitia sua quam operatus est vivet

23 numquid voluntatis meae est mors impii dicit Dominus Deus et non ut convertatur a viis suis et vivat

24 si autem averterit se iustus a iustitia sua et fecerit iniquitatem secundum omnes abominationes quas operari solet impius numquid vivet omnes iustitiae eius quas fecerat non recordabuntur in praevaricatione qua praevaricatus est et in peccato suo quod peccavit in ipsis morietur
