Contextual Overview

30But the person who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native or a sojourner, that one is blaspheming Yahweh; and that person shall be cut off from among his people. 31Because he has despised the word of Yahweh and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his guilt will be on him.'" 32Now the sons of Israel were in the wilderness, and they found a man gathering wood on the sabbath day. 33And those who found him gathering wood brought him near to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation; 34and they put him in custody because it had not been declared what should be done to him. 35Then Yahweh said to Moses, "The man shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp." 36So all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death with stones, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

And the Lord said unto Moses,.... Who consulted the Lord upon this affair, in the tabernacle, even at the most holy place, from above the mercy seat, where he promised to meet him, and commune with him about whatsoever he should consult him, Exodus 25:22;

the man shall surely be put to death; for as no fire was to be made throughout their habitations on a sabbath day, gathering sticks for such a purpose was a work that was a violation of the sabbath, punishable with death, Exodus 35:2; and the kind of death follows:

all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp; as afterwards without the city: of the place and manner of stoning,

Exodus 35:2- :.
