总结:It is typically argued that in Ezek 20:5–26 YHWH thrice proposes or purposes to “pour out his wrath” on Israel, but then instead “acts on account of his name” – relenting from or deferring judgment.

This reading offers a new dimension for understanding intergenerational responsibility in Ezekiel.
