Exegesis

The connective ve-nichretah {וְנִכְרְתָ֛ה | və-ni-khre-tāh} ‘and shall be cut off’ indicates divine enforcement, and the construct mi-kerev ammah {מִקֶּ֥רֶב עַמָּֽהּ | mi-qe-rev ʿam-mah} ‘from the midst of her people’ specifies the communal removal.

In context — Numbers 15:30

But the person who acts with a high hand, whether native-born or a foreigner, blasphemes the LORD and shall be cut off from the midst of their people.
