Yet the children of your people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.
All Commentaries on Ezekiel 33:17 Go To Ezekiel 33

Equitable; as we are much more inclined to vice than to virtue. This argumentation is inconclusive, as God owes nothing to man; and what good the latter does, is an effect of his grace. The propensity to evil is no excuse, as man is still free. He is judged according to the dispositions in which he is found at the hour of death; yet we must not infer, that those who have spent their lives in sinning will be no worse treated than the person who dies guilty of a single crime.
