Who according to Ezekiel, did the exiles blame for their plight?
Answer Details
According to Ezekiel, the exiles blamed their fathers for their plight. In Ezekiel 18:2, the exiles expressed a proverb that their fathers had eaten sour grapes and their teeth were set on edge, which meant that they believed they were suffering for the sins of their ancestors. Ezekiel countered this belief by telling them that each person is responsible for their own actions and will be judged accordingly. He taught them that if they turn away from their wickedness, they will live and not die.
