Exodus 34:7 NKJV - "keeping mercy for thousands,
forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting
the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children's children to
the third and the fourth generation."
Isaiah 14:21 NKJV - "Prepare slaughter for his
children Because of the iniquity of their fathers, Lest they rise up and
possess the land, And fill the face of the world with cities.""
Ezekiel 18:20 NKJV -
""The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of
the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of
the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be
upon himself."
Deuteronomy 24:16 NKJV -
""Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor shall
children be put to death for their fathers; a person shall be put to death
for his own sin."
Answer:
Jacob experienced parental grief according to the
cheating which he did. When Absalom died, David cried out by tearing his
clothes according to the unjust deeds which he did. The father gets the grief
when the Lord’s fury comes upon his children. Cain became the murder of his
brother according to the Adam’s sin. The children experience the harms which
came from the bad habits of their fathers. The contagious diseases, which
earned by the father through the adultery are spread to the children through
his wife. Not only father’ health gets spoiled by the alcoholic drinks and dies;
his family also grieves without safety.
What is the meaning in, “The soul who sins shall die”
Everyone must experience the punishment which come from their sins and
trespasses in the judgment of dead in mid sky. The dead will get resurrection.
Thereafter, the judgment of the Lord and punishment will occur. The inner
meaning in this is that Lord will punish an individual for his sins only.
