19 And you shall not have sex with a woman, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness. 20 And you shall not have sex with your neighbor's wife, to defile yourself with her. 21 And you shall not give any of your seed to make them pass through [the fire] to Molech; neither shall you profane the name of your God: I am Yahweh. 22 You shall not have sex with a man: it is disgusting. 23 And you shall not have sex with any animal and defile yourself therewith; neither shall any woman have sex with an animal: it is perverted. 24 Don't defile yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations have been defiled which I am casting out from before you; 25 And the land is defiled: therefore I visit the iniquity thereof on it, and the land vomits out her inhabitants. 26 You therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these disgusting things; neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourns among you; 27 for the men that were before you in the land have done all these disgusting things, and the land is defiled; 28 that the land does not vomit you out also, when you defile it, as it is vomiting out the nation that was before you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
That the land spew not you out also, when ye defile it,.... By sinning on it, and so rendering it obnoxious to the curse of God, as the whole earth originally was for the sin of man; and so be cast out of it, as Adam was out of paradise, and as the Israelites might expect to be cast out of Canaan, as the old inhabitants of it had been:
as it spewed out the nations that [were] before you; which for the certainty of it is spoken of as done, though it was as yet future; and what the Lord did is ascribed to the land, the more to aggravate their crying sins and abominations, for which the land mourned, and which it could not bear.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The land designed and consecrated for His people by Yahweh Leviticus 25:23 is here impersonated, and represented as vomiting forth its present inhabitants, in consequence of their indulgence in the abominations that have been mentioned. The iniquity of the Canaanites was now full. See Genesis 15:16; compare Isaiah 24:1-6. The Israelites in this place, and throughout the chapter, are exhorted to a pure and holy life, on the ground that Yahweh, the Holy One, is their God and that they are His people. Compare Leviticus 19:2. It is upon this high sanction that they are peremptorily forbidden to defile themselves with the pollutions of the pagan. The only punishment here pronounced upon individual transgressors is, that they shall “bear their iniquity” and be “cut off from among their people.” We must understand this latter phrase as expressing an “ipso facto” excommunication or outlawry, the divine Law pronouncing on the offender an immediate forfeiture of the privileges which belonged to him as one of the people in covenant with Yahweh. See Exodus 31:14 note. The course which the Law here takes seems to be first to appeal to the conscience of the individual man on the ground of his relation to Yahweh, and then Leviticus 20:0 to enact such penalties as the order of the state required, and as represented the collective conscience of the nation put into operation.
