Exegesis
The terse clause lo yikhyeh {לֹא יִחְיֶה | lōʾ yiḥ-yeh} ‘he shall not live’ categorically denies survival.
In context — Exodus 19:13
No hand is to touch him, for he shall surely be stoned or shot; whether beast or man, he shall not live . When the ram’s horn sounds long, then they may go up the mountain.
