Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.
But you're still out here saying 'God isn't being fair.' Listen, Israel, I'm going to judge each of you based on exactly how you've chosen to live your life.
You can't call God unfair when he judges you by the choices you actually made.
📚 Historical Context
Ezekiel was a prophet speaking to the exiled Jewish people in Babylon during the 6th century BC, a time when Israel faced judgment for their persistent idolatry and disobedience to God's laws. In this verse, the people were accusing God of being unfair in His dealings, claiming His ways were not equal or just. God responds by emphasizing that He will judge each individual based on their own actions, upholding His righteousness amid their complaints.
