"The Jews never believed in, or held such a concept, except as an ad hominum, as God points out in John 9."

The Jews reject the entire New Testamant, which we Christians believes is a new and everlasting covenant. You may be comfortable basing your beliefs on an incomplete reading of Ezekiel, but I am going to continue to rely on Romans 5:12-21 an 1 Corinthians 15:22.

Peace be with you

"You may be comfortable basing your beliefs on an incomplete reading of Ezekiel,"

Ezekiel 18 is very simple and straightforward: "The soul who sins is the one who will die." Ezekiel 18:19,20 “Yet you ask, ‘Why does the son not share the guilt of his father?’ Since the son has done what is just and right and has been careful to keep all my decrees, he will surely live. The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to him, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against him.

There is nothing more to "read". There is no stain of sin passed down from Adam. Adam is a character in the parable of Genesis that represents every individual.

"I am going to continue to rely on Romans 5:12-21 an 1 Corinthians 15:22."
