Contextual Overview
10Now suppose that man has a violent son, who sheds blood or does any of these things, 11though the father has done none of them: 'Indeed, the son eats at the mountain and defiles his neighbor's wife. 12He oppresses the poor and needy; he commits robbery and does not restore a pledge. He lifts his eyes to idols; he commits abominations. 13He engages in usury and takes excess interest.' Will this son live? He will not! Since he has committed all these abominations, he will surely die; his blood will be on his own head. 14Now suppose this son has a son who sees all the sins his father has committed, considers them, and does not do likewise: 15'He does not eat at the mountain or look to the idols of the house of Israel. He does not defile his neighbor's wife.16He does not oppress another, or retain a pledge, or commit robbery. He gives his bread to the hungry and covers the naked with clothing. 17He withholds his hand from iniquity and takes no interest or usury. He keeps My ordinances and follows My statutes.' Such a man will not die for his father's iniquity. He will surely live. 18As for his father, he will die for his own iniquity, because he practiced extortion, robbed his brother, and did what was wrong among his people. 19Yet you may ask, 'Why should the son not bear the iniquity of the father?' Since the son has done what is just and right, carefully observing all My statutes, he will surely live.
