Leviticus 23:30

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 Don't do any work that day. It is a special day for the payment for sins. It is a time when you make peace with the LORD your God.

29 Those who do not humble themselves on that day will be excluded from the people.

30 I will kill those who do any work on that day.

31 Don't do any work. It is a permanent law for generations to come wherever you live.

32 It is a day of worship, a day when you don't work. Humble yourselves starting on the evening of the ninth day of the month. From that evening to the next, observe the day of worship."
