As we visit the books of the Torah we come across texts that emphasize the importance of our behavior, and how our actions might have repercussions for future generations. The claim is that not following God\u2019s commandments will affect our heirs almost similar to a genetic disease.The Decalogue in Exodus 20 (and also in Deuteronomy 5) are very clear about the intergenerational impact of our conduct:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou shall not bow down to them or serve them. For I, YHWH, your God am an impassioned God, visiting the guilt of the parents upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generations of those who reject Me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Babylonian Talmud Makkot 24a comments that in four cases the prophets invalidated a decree Moses made in the Torah. The prophets adjusted to the realities of their time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRabbi Yossi bar Chanina said: \u201cMoses made four decrees upon [the people of] Israel which four prophets came and canceled\u2026<\/span>
\n<\/span>Moses said (Exod 34:7): \u2018He visits the iniquity of the fathers on the children.\u2019<\/span>
\n<\/span>Ezekiel came and canceled this (Ezek 18:4): \u2018The one who sins will die.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

The Prophet adamantly portrays a clear picture: be responsible for your own actions!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c…and now you ask, \u201cWhy has not the son shared the burden of his father\u2019s guilt?\u201d But the son has done what is right and just, and has carefully kept all My laws: he shall live! The person who sins, he alone shall die. A child shall not share the burden of a parent\u2019s guilt, nor shall a parent share the burden of a child\u2019s guilt; the righteousness of the righteous shall be accounted to him alone, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be accounted to him alone\u201d (18:19-20).<\/span><\/p>\n","image":{"ID":73923,"id":73923,"title":"ez18-decalogue2","filename":"ez18-decalogue2.jpg","filesize":0,"url":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/ez18-decalogue2.jpg","link":"https:\/\/wp.929.org.il\/en\/accepting-responsibility-for-the-consequences-of-your-own-actions\/ez18-decalogue2\/","alt":"","author":"7","description":"","caption":"","name":"ez18-decalogue2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":73920,"date":"2020-04-29
