Vayikra 23:30

30 And whatsoever nefesh it be that doeth any work in that same day, that nefesh will I destroy from among his people.

Vayikra 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.

Vayikra 23:30 In-Context

28 And ye shall do no work in that same day; for it is Yom Kippurim, to make kapporah for you before Hashem Eloheichem.
29 For whatsoever nefesh it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people.
30 And whatsoever nefesh it be that doeth any work in that same day, that nefesh will I destroy from among his people.
31 Ye shall do no manner of work; it shall be a chukkat olam throughout your dorot in all your dwellings.
32 It shall be unto you a Shabbos Shabbaton, and ye shall afflict your nefashot; in the ninth day of the month at erev, from erev unto erev, shall ye observe your Shabbos.
