Leviticus 18:29 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 18:29

For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations
Before particularly forbid, any of them, be it which it will, they all being very heinous and vile, and especially these last mentioned: even the souls that commit [them];
whether male or female, as Jarchi observes; for the above things concern them both for the most part, however some one, and some another; and though most, if not all the said crimes are committed by the members of the body, yet since under the influence and direction of the soul, the commission of them is attributed to that, and the punishment threatened respects both: shall be cut off from among the people;
be removed from their church state, and deprived of ecclesiastical privileges, and from their civil state, and reckoned no more of the commonwealth of Israel; and if known and convicted, to be punished by the civil magistrate, and if not, by the immediate hand of God.

Leviticus 18:29 In-Context

27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, who were before you, and the land is defiled),
28 that the land spew not you out also when ye defile it, as it spewed out the nations that were before you.
29 For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls who commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
30 Therefore shall ye keep Mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.'"
