October 27
Introduction
The book of Ezekiel is set against the backdrop of the fall of Jerusalem in 586 B.C. Today’s reading focuses on the issue of intergenerational punishment. It describes various scenarios of parents and children committing sins, and it is the sinner alone who will be punished.
Scripture Reading
Ezekiel 18:1-20
Today’s Key Verse: Ezekiel 18:4
[The Sovereign LORD said:] “The life of every person belongs to me, the life of the parent as well as that of the child. The person who sins is the one who will die.”
Reflect
The proverb quoted in verse 2 implies that children suffered because of the actions of their parents. Some of the Israelites living in exile blamed their situation on the sins of their ancestors and did not take responsibility for their own sins. How does today’s reading refute the proverb stated in verse 2? Reread verse 20. What are your thoughts about this verse?
Pray
Sovereign God, you are my God, and I will worship and honor you alone. Teach me to keep your laws and obey your commands. Guide me each day along the path of righteousness. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Ezekiel 18:21-32: God forgives those who repent and turn back to him.
