Ezekiel18:9-10
Ver. 9. Hath walked in my ſtatutes] — Quil[illegible: 1 letter]ges juraque ſervat. It is as if the Prophet had ſaid, There are many more characters of a righteous man: but I ſhall ſhut up all with this: He that is right in his obedience for matter, manner, motive and end, he's the man I meane, he ſhall ſuerly live.
Effractor.Ver. 10. If he beget a ſon] As he may: for grace is not hereditarty. Heroum filii noxae.
That is a robber] A breach-maker, whether upon the Laws of God, or of men: one that is a poſtilent ſon, as the Sept. here have it, a plague to his Parents, and to his Country.
And that doth the like to any one of theſe things] Or, that doth to his brother beſides any of theſe: as there are mille artes nocendi.
