Exegesis
The construct mikol-pesha’av {מִכָּל־פְּשָׁעָ֖יו | mi-kol-pəšāʿāw} ‘from all his transgressions’ conveys comprehensive abandonment; the relative pronoun asher {אֲשֶׁר | ʾăšer} ‘which’ introduces a subordinate clause specifying the offenses (asah {עָשָׂה | ʿāśāh} ‘he did’).
In context — Ezekiel 18:28
And when he sees and returns , and turns back from all his transgressions which he has done, surely he shall live; he shall not die.
