Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 33:15
Ezekiel 33:15. If the wicked restore, &c.— Robbery and violence would be too gainful a trade, if a man might quit all scores by repentance, and detain all he has gotten; or if the father's repentance might serve the turn, and the benefit of the transgression be transmitted as an inheritance to the son. If the pledge remained, it must be restored; the retaining of it is committing a new iniquity, and forfeits any benefit of the promise. If he have it not, nor be able to procure it, his... read more

15. give again that he had robbed— (Luke 19:8). statutes of life—in the obeying of which life is promised (Luke 19:8- :). If the law has failed to give life to man, it has not been the fault of the law, but of man's sinful inability to keep it (Romans 7:10; Romans 7:12; Galatians 3:21). It becomes life-giving through Christ's righteous obedience to it (Galatians 3:21- :). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 33:1-20
A. A warning to the exiles 33:1-20Since this message is undated, it may have come to Ezekiel about the same time as the previous two in chapter 32, namely, in the last month of 585 B.C. If so, Ezekiel received it about two months after God gave him the six messages recorded in Ezekiel 33:21 to Ezekiel 39:29 (cf. Ezekiel 33:21). Perhaps the writer inserted the present message in the text here because its strong encouragement to repent was more typical of Ezekiel’s emphasis before news of... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 33:14-16
God’s warnings that the wicked would die because of their sinfulness also needed to be understood properly. They would die only if they failed to repent. If the wicked turned from his sins and obeyed the Mosaic Law, he would not die (prematurely). God would not hold his former sins against him. He would receive his life as a reward for his righteous conduct. read more
John Dummelow
John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 33:1-20
The Prophet and the IndividualThis passage combines an expanded repetition of Ezekiel 3:17-21 with a condensed repetition of Ezekiel 18:5-29. The prophet is a watchman, responsible for warning his people of the consequences of sin. God deals with individual souls in strict justice, and desires that all should turn from their evil ways and live. These principles, already announced, became of special importance, and found their real application, after the fall of Jerusalem. As Ezekiel had... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 33:1-20
33:1-39:29 RETURN TO THE LANDA new phase in Ezekiel’s work (33:1-20)Up till now Ezekiel’s messages have been concerned mainly with God’s judgment - first his judgment on Jerusalem, then his judgment on other nations. Now that Jerusalem has fallen (see v. 21), the prophet concentrates more on the task of building up the exiles. He wants them to be a new people who will be ready to repossess the land when God’s time comes. This, however, is going to involve some stern warnings. Ezekiel is... read more
