Leviticus 23:30 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 23:30

And whatsoever soul [it be] that doeth any work in that same
day
Any sort of work whatever; for, as before observed, it was to be kept as strictly as the weekly sabbath:

the same soul will I destroy from among his people;
with the pestilence, as the above Targum; it seems to be but another phrase for cutting them off, and to signify the same thing.

Leviticus 23:30 In-Context

28 And you must not do {any regular work} on {this very same day}, because it [is] the Day of Atonement to make atonement for you {before} Yahweh your God.

29 If [there is] any person who does not deny [himself] on {this very same day}, then he shall be cut off from his people.

30 As for any person who does any work on {this very same day}, I will exterminate that person from the midst of his people.

31 You must not do any work; [it is] a {lasting statute} throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

32 It [is] {a Sabbath of complete rest} for you, and you shall deny yourselves on the ninth [day] of the month in the evening--from evening to evening you must observe your [extraordinary] Sabbath."
