Commentary on Ezekiel 33:10

Theological / Devotional

How should we then live? The mood of Ezekiel’s hearers has changed. Earlier the prophet had met with unbelief and derision (ch. 12:22). The people had tried to excuse their sin by asserting that they were suffering the punishment, not for their own sins, but for the sins of their fathers (ch. 18:2). With the doom of Jerusalem certain, they could no longer gainsay the prophet’s words. In abject despair they say, in effect, “If all this is in punishment for our sins, what hope is there for us?”
