  • Ezek 18:14-32 : 14 Now suppose this person has a son who sees all the sins his father has committed. Though he sees them, he does not do such things: 15 He does not eat at the mountain shrines or lift his eyes to the idols of Israel. He does not defile his neighbor’s wife. 16 He does not oppress anyone, or require a pledge for a loan, or commit robbery. He gives his bread to the hungry and covers the naked with clothing. 17 He refrains from harming the poor, does not lend at interest or take a profit, and obeys my rules and walkthroughs my statutes. Such a person will not die for his father's sins; he will surely live. 18 But his father, because he practiced extortion, robbed his own people, and did what was not good among them—behold, he will die for his iniquity. 19 Yet you ask, ‘Why does the son not bear the guilt of his father?’ Since the son has done what is just and right, has carefully observed all my statutes, and has kept them, he will surely live. 20 The soul who sins will die. The son will not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous will be credited to them, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against them. 21 But if the wicked turn from all their sins that they have committed, keep all my statutes, and do what is just and right, they will live; they will not die. 22 None of the offenses they have committed will be remembered against them. Because of the righteousness they have practiced, they will live. 23 Do I take pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign Lord. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live? 24 But if a righteous person turns away from their righteousness and commits sin, doing the same detestable things the wicked do, will they live? None of the righteous deeds they have done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness they are guilty of and because of the sins they have committed, they will die. 25 Yet you say, 'The way of the Lord is not just.' Hear me, O house of Israel: Is my way unjust? Is it not your ways that are unjust? 26 If a righteous person turns from their righteousness and commits sin, they will die for it; because of the sin they have committed, they will die. 27 But if a wicked person turns away from the wickedness they have committed and does what is just and right, they will save their life. 28 Because they consider all the offenses they have committed and turn away from them, they will surely live; they will not die. 29 Yet the house of Israel says, 'The way of the Lord is not just.' Are my ways unjust, house of Israel? Is it not your ways that are unjust? 30 Therefore, house of Israel, I will judge each of you according to your own ways, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent! Turn away from all your offenses; then sin will not be your downfall. 31 Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit. Why will you die, house of Israel? 32 For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent and live!
  • Ezek 22:2-4 : 2 Son of man, will you judge? Will you judge the city of bloodshed and confront her with all her abominations? 3 Then say, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: You city that sheds blood in her midst to bring her time closer, and makes idols to defile herself, 4 You have become guilty because of the blood you have shed, and you are defiled by the idols you made. You have brought your days near and have come to the end of your years. Therefore, I have made you a disgrace to the nations and a mockery to all the lands.
  • Ezek 24:7-9 : 7 For the blood she has shed is inside her; she placed it on the bare rock. She did not pour it on the ground to cover it with dust. 8 To stir up wrath and bring vengeance, I have placed her blood on the bare rock, so it would not be covered. 9 Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: Woe to the city of bloodshed! I myself will make the fire great.
  • Matt 21:44 : 44 Whoever falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it falls, it will crush him to powder.
  • Matt 23:30-37 : 30 and you say, 'If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partners with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.' 31 So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Fill up, then, the measure of your forefathers' sins! 33 You serpents, you brood of vipers! How can you escape being sentenced to hell? 34 Therefore, look, I am sending you prophets, wise men, and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will flog in your synagogues and persecute from town to town, 35 so that upon you will come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. 36 Truly, I tell you, all these things will come upon this generation. 37 Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you! How often I have wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing!
