F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Ezekiel 18:14-32

the Reversal of the Divine Judgment Ezekiel 18:14-32 The Jews of Ezekiel’s day asserted that God’s dealings with their nation were not just, because they were suffering, not for their own sins, but for their fathers’. God here makes it clear that He deals with individuals according to their deserts. The guilty son of a good father does not escape punishment because of his father’s virtues; and the good son of evil parents reaps the reward of his own goodness. What a well of comfort is... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 18:1-32

The next prophecy was directed against the false attitude of mind obtaining among the exiled people, which had expressed itself in a proverb, "The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge." By the use of this proverb they intended to lay the blame of their present suffering on their fathers. While recognizing all the evil which had befallen them as the result of sin, they maintained the attitude of injured innocence, declaring, in effect, that they were bearing... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 18:14-17

The Righteous Grandson. “Now, lo, if he beget a son who sees all his father’s sins which he has done, and fears (an alternative reading is ‘considers’), and does not such things, who has not eaten on the mountains, nor has lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, has not defiled his neighbour’s wife, nor has wronged any, has not taken anything in pledge, nor has spoiled others by violence, but has given his bread to the hungry, and has covered those lacking in clothes with... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Ezekiel 18:10-20

(Ezekiel 18:10-20)EXEGETICAL NOTES—Two cases are here supposed: (1). That of a righteous father who begets an unrighteous son. (2). That of a righteous son who refuses to copy the evil example of his father. And the prophet affirms that, in the former case, the righteousness of the father will not avail to save the son; and in the latter, that the son shall not suffer for the unrighteousness of his father. One shall not die for the iniquity of the other. Each man shall save his own soul by his... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 18:1-32

Chapter 18Now there are instructions for those who have been taken to Babylon, and Ezekiel now turns and speaks to them.The word of the LORD came unto me, saying, What mean ye, that you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge? ( Ezekiel 18:1-2 )Now, it is interesting that Ezekiel was in Babylon, and this proverb was at that time being spoken in Babylon. They're going around saying, "Well, our fathers... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 18:1-32

Ezekiel 18:2 . The fathers have eaten sour (unripe) grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge. Chaldaic, the children follow them. This proverb threw the blame on their fathers, on Adam, on the unbelievers in the desert, and on Manasseh, who went to great excesses. Horace rebukes the Romans; no marvel then that the prophets should do the same. Delicta majorum immeritus lues, Romane. Ezekiel 18:4 . All souls are mine. As the Judge, my hands are clean, my laws are holy, my... read more
