\u00a0<\/span>Ezekiel 18:20<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0The soul who sins shall die.

Understand it thus, if the one be free from the guilt of the other\u2019s sin, and except in those cases where the sovereign Lord of life and death, before whom none is innocent, hath commanded it, as\u00a0Deu 13 Jos 7:24<\/b>. For this law is given to men, not to God; and though God do visit the father\u2019s sins upon the children,\u00a0Exo 20<\/b>, yet he will not suffer men to do so. (Poole)<\/p>\n
The fathers shall not be put to death for the children,…. By the civil magistrates, for sins committed by them of a capital nature, and which are worthy of death: neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers; for sins committed by them that deserve it: (Gill)<\/p>\n
\u00a0Fathers were not to be put to death upon (along with) their sons, nor sons upon (along with) their fathers, i.e., they were not to suffer the punishment of death with them for crimes in which they had no share; but every one was to be punished simply for his own sin. This command was important, to prevent an unwarrantable and abusive application of the law which is manifest in the movements of divine justice to the criminal jurisprudence of the lane (Exodus 20:5<\/span><\/a>), since it was a common thing among the heathen nations – e.g., the Persians, Macedonians, and others – for the children and families of criminals to be also put to death. (Keil)<\/p>\n
Among heathen nations it was common for a whole family to be involved in the penalty incurred by the head of the family, and to be put to death along with him. Such severity of retribution is here prohibited in the penal code of the Israelites. Though God, in the exercise of his absolute sovereignty, might visit the sins of the parent upon the children (Exodus 20:5<\/span><\/a>), earthly judges were not to assume this power. Only the transgressor himself was to bear the penalty of his sin. (Unkown)<\/p>\n
We all have sinned and are worthy of not only death but eternal torment. We fall short in doing what is right, good, and holy before God. Where is our hope for redemption, salvation, and forgiveness? How can we pass from an eternal torment death sentence into justified eternal life?<\/p>\n
