Leviticus 23:30

30 "As for any person who does any work on this same day, that person I will destroy from among his people.

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 "You shall not do any work on this same day, for it is a day of atonement, to make atonement on your behalf before the LORD your God.
29 "If there is any person who will not humble himself on this same day, he shall be cut off from his people.
30 "As for any person who does any work on this same day, that person I will destroy from among his people.
31 "You shall do no work at all. It is to be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places.
32 "It is to be a sabbath of complete rest to you, and you shall humble your souls; on the ninth of the month at evening, from evening until evening you shall keep your sabbath."
