Alleged Contradictions

[TBC: Here is another Atheist accusation of contradiction in the Bible]:

ON PUNISHING CRIME
"The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father..." -- Ezekiel:18:20The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
See All...

"I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation..." -- Exodus:20:5Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
See All...

[TBC: Here is a case where a course in "Remedial Reading" would offer hope. First of all, Ezekiel:18:20The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
See All... is pointing out the accountability of an individual for his own sin. This same principle is a part of our own justice system. Exodus:20:5Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
See All... is not addressing punishment for crime. It does point out, however, that there are consequences for sin. Sociologists note the prevalence of drunkenness or crime in certain families. The full verse is discussing idolatry and how the consequences of a father’s embrace of the same causes severe problems down through the generations. That is evident.]
