In Ezekiel 18:4, the principle that the soul who sins dies is the foundation for the father's death in verse 18.

In Ezekiel 18:20, the same principle is restated: each dies for their own sin, clarifying that the father's death is just.

In Ezekiel 18:26, a righteous person who turns to injustice dies for it—mirroring the father's death for his own sin.

In Ezekiel 3:18, the wicked die for their iniquity—same principle as the father's death, though with a watchman's warning.

In Leviticus 6:4, the law requires restitution for extortion and theft — the very sins the father committed in Ezekiel 18:18.

In John 8:21, Jesus says unbelievers will die in their sin—a New Testament echo of dying for one's own iniquity.

In John 8:24, dying in sins is tied to unbelief—contrasts with Ezekiel's focus on deeds but shares the consequence.
