Exegesis

The verse presents a protasis-conclusion structure where a series of perfect verbs—heshiv {הֵשִׁיב | hē-šîḇ} ‘he turned back’, lakach {לָקָח | lā-qach} ‘he took’, asah {עָשָׂה | ʿā-śāh} ‘he practiced’, halakh {הָלָךְ | hā-lāḵ} ‘he walked’—enumerate the righteous conduct.

In contextEzekiel 18:17

He withdrew his hand from oppressing the poor, did not take interest or increase, practiced my judgments, walked in my statutes; he will not die for his father’s iniquity, he will surely live.
