God's Just Treatment Of Individuals, Both Righteous And Wicked

So he must die, and he will be responsible for his own death. 14 “Now behold, he has a son who has observed all his father’s sins which he committed, and observing does not do likewise. 15 He does not eat at the illegal mountain worship sites or look for help from the idols of the nation of Israel. He does not dishonor his neighbor's wife.
