Leviticus 23:30

30 I will destroy anyone among your people who does any work on that day.

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 Do not do any work on that day. It is the day when sin is paid for. On that day your sin will be paid for in my sight. I am the LORD your God.
29 "Suppose you do eat food on that day. Then you will be cut off from your people.
30 I will destroy anyone among your people who does any work on that day.
31 You must not do any work at all. That is a law that will last for all time to come. It applies no matter where you live.
32 "That day is a sabbath for you. You must rest on it. You must not eat anything on that day. You must keep your sabbath from the evening of the ninth day of the month until the following evening."
