Левит 22:3

Скажи им: если кто из всего потомства вашего в роды ваши, имея на себе нечистоту, приступит к святыням, которые посвящают сыны Израилевы Господу, то истребитсядуша та от лица Моего. Я Господь.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

having his uncleanness upon him: That is, in other words, "when he is unclean." Leviticus 7:20, Leviticus 7:21

that soul: That is, according to some, thrust out of the priest's office, or from officiating at the altar; or, according to others, cut off by some immediate stroke of divine justice, like Nadab and Abihu.

from my: Exodus 33:14, Exodus 33:15, Psalms 16:11, Psalms 51:11, Matthew 25:41, 2 Thessalonians 1:9

Reciprocal: Leviticus 6:18 - every one Leviticus 22:2 - General Numbers 5:9 - offering Numbers 18:11 - every one Numbers 19:13 - his uncleanness 2 Chronicles 30:19 - though he be not Ezra 2:63 - should not Ezra 8:28 - the vessels Ezekiel 14:8 - I will cut Galatians 5:12 - cut

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Say unto them, whosoever [he be] of all your seed among your generations,.... Whether male or female, in all succeeding ages, as long as the ceremonial law lasted; for females as well as males of the families of the priests ate of the holy things, provided they had no uncleanness on them, but if they had, they might not:

that goeth unto the holy things, which the children of Israel hallow unto the Lord: that approaches to any of the sacrifices which the children of Israel have devoted to the Lord, either to offer them, or even to touch them, and particularly to eat of them; and so Jarchi and Ben Gersom observe, that this going or drawing near is no other than eating; for touching only, a man was not guilty of cutting off:

having his uncleanness upon him; through a leprosy, or running issue, or touching any unclean person or thing, as the following words explain it:

that soul shall be cut off from my presence; excluded from the sanctuary, and the service of it, where the presence of God was; or be removed out of the world by death, either by the civil magistrate, or by the hand of God, by an immediate death, by the pestilence, as the Targum of Jonathan:

I [am] the Lord; that will avenge the breach of such a law, able to inflict such punishment, and faithful to accomplish every word of his, whether in a way of threatening or promise.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Cut off from my presence - i. e. excluded from the sanctuary. See Leviticus 20:17.
