"And whatsoever soul it be that doeth any manner of work in that same day, that soul will I destroy from among his people." — Leviticus 23:30 (ASV)
And whatsoever soul [it be] that does 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.
