Exegesis
The final clause ve-hazar ha-karev yumat {וְהַזָּר הַקָּרֵב יוּמָֽת | wə-hā-zār ha-qā-rēḇ yū-māṯ} uses the Hophal imperfect for passive authority, enforcing exclusion by death for unauthorized approach, reinforcing communal and holy boundaries.
In context — Numbers 18:7
But you and your sons with you shall keep your priesthood for every matter of the altar and within the veil, and you shall serve, for I have given you the priesthood as a service of gift; and the outsider who comes near shall be put to death.
