Ezekiel 18:26

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

When a righteous [man] turneth away from his righteousness,.... This is repeated for the further confirmation of it, and to raise their attention to it; to make it more plain and manifest to them, and to fix it upon their minds:and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them: or, "he shall die for them" ; both for his turning away from his righteousness, and for his committing iniquity:for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die; in both respects.

This is repeated to denote the certainty of it.
