Context — Additional Laws
14Do not oppress a hired hand who is poor and needy, whether he is a brother or a foreigner residing in one of your towns.
15You are to pay his wages each day before sunset, because he is poor and depends on them. Otherwise he may cry out to the LORD against you, and you will be guilty of sin.
16Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin.
17Do not deny justice to the foreigner or the fatherless, and do not take a widow’s cloak as security. 18Remember that you were slaves in Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you from that place. Therefore I am commanding you to do this.Cross References

Deuteronomy 24:16 Summary
Deuteronomy 24:16 means that each person is responsible for their own actions and will be judged for their own sins, not for the sins of their parents or children. This is a principle of fairness and justice, as seen in Ezekiel 18:20. It's like when you do something wrong, you can't blame your parents or siblings - you have to take responsibility for your own actions. This verse reminds us that God is a just and fair God, who wants us to take responsibility for our own lives and actions, as also taught in Romans 14:12.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main principle of Deuteronomy 24:16?
The main principle of Deuteronomy 24:16 is that each person is responsible for their own sin, as stated in the verse, and this is reinforced in Ezekiel 18:20, which says that the son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son.
Does this verse mean that children are never punished for their parents' actions?
According to Deuteronomy 24:16, children are not to be put to death for their parents' sins, but this does not mean they will never face consequences for their parents' actions, as seen in Exodus 34:7, which says that God punishes the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.
How does this verse relate to the concept of original sin?
Deuteronomy 24:16 emphasizes individual responsibility, but it does not directly address the concept of original sin, which is discussed in Romans 5:12-19 and Psalm 51:5, where it is clear that sin has affected all humanity.
What is the significance of this verse in the context of the surrounding verses?
Deuteronomy 24:16 is part of a larger section that emphasizes justice and compassion for the vulnerable, such as the poor, foreigners, and widows, as seen in Deuteronomy 24:14-15 and Deuteronomy 24:17-18, highlighting God's concern for the well-being of all people.
Reflection Questions
- How can I apply the principle of personal responsibility for my actions, as stated in Deuteronomy 24:16, to my own life?
- In what ways can I show compassion and justice to those around me, especially to the vulnerable, as emphasized in the surrounding verses?
- What does this verse teach me about God's character and His desire for justice and fairness?
- How can I balance the idea of personal responsibility with the need to show mercy and forgiveness to others, as seen in Matthew 6:14-15?
- What are some ways that I can reflect on my own sin and take responsibility for it, rather than blaming others or making excuses?
Gill's Exposition on Deuteronomy 24:16
The fathers shall not be put to death for the children,.... By the civil magistrates, for sins committed by them of a capital nature, and which are worthy of death: neither shall the children be put
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Deuteronomy 24:16
The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin. The fathers shall not be put to death for the children.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Deuteronomy 24:16
Understand it thus, if the one be free from the guilt of the other’ s sin, and except in those cases where the sovereign Lord of life and death, before whom none is innocent, hath commanded it, as Deuteronomy 13 Jos 7:24. For this law is given to men, not to God; and though God do visit the father’ s sins upon the children, Exodus 20, yet he will not suffer men to do so. For his own sin, understand only, and not for any other man’ s sin.
Ellicott's Commentary on Deuteronomy 24:16
(16) The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers.—A special note of the observance of this precept by Amaziah son of Joash is noticed both in Kings and Chronicles. See marginal references. It was not observed by the Persians in the case of Daniel’s accusers (Daniel 6:24). The case of Achan, who “perished not alone in his iniquity,” falls under a different head. See Notes on Joshua 7.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Deuteronomy 24:16
Verse 16. The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, &c.] This law is explained and illustrated in sufficient detail, Ezekiel 18:1-9 &c.
Cambridge Bible on Deuteronomy 24:16
16. Responsibility for Crime is Individual. The opposition of this principle to that which prevailed in many ancient nations (Herod. iii. 119, Esther 9:13 f., Daniel 6:24 (25)), and which seems to have prevailed in Israel (JE, Joshua 7:24, 2 Kings 9:26, cp. Deuteronomy 14:6), when the family was regarded as a moral unit, and the children were put to death with their father in expiation of his crime, is very striking, and the more so that the ethical solidarity of the nation is so constantly assumed by D. It has therefore been doubted whether the law belonged originally to D. Some take it as dependent on Jeremiah 31:29, or Ezekiel 18 on the ground that the principle of individual responsibility is there proclaimed as if for the first time, in opposition to the older ideas. But 2 Kings 14:6 records that Amaziah when putting to death the assassins of his father did not also slay their children—apparently an innovation on the usual practice. The deuteronomic editor of Kings quotes D’s law as the King’s authority for his clemency. But general laws so often rose from individual cases that it is possible that this law (which is not found in any other code) was the result of Amaziah’s innovating example, and is, therefore, one of the several incorporated by D from earlier sources. Note that it is not in the direct form of address nor otherwise deuteronomic in its phrasing.
See further Jerus. ii. 113 ff.
Barnes' Notes on Deuteronomy 24:16
A caution addressed to earthly judges. Among other Oriental nations the family of a criminal was commonly involved in his punishment (compare Esther 9:13-14). In Israel it was not to be so; compare marginal references.
Whedon's Commentary on Deuteronomy 24:16
16. The fathers shall not be put to death for the children — Among the Eastern nations the family of the guilty criminal was frequently made to suffer, the innocent with the guilty. Comp. Esther 9:13-14.
