Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 18:2

2 What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, the Fathers have eaten sowre grapes, and the childrens teeth are set on edge?

What cause have you, or what would you have men think of your carriage to me, and of mine towards you.

You that are now in Babylon

Openly, unjustly, and impudently justifie your selves, and condemn your God.

Tart, but false accusation of his wayes.

The two Tribes, not the ten.

Our fore Fathers.

Have sinned.

We their Children, who were unborn, do suffer now for their sins, and this was grown common both in Babylon, and also in Ierusalem, Ier. 31.29. you would be thought innocent, and my proceedings against you unjust and cruel.
