the punishment of karet, which literally means being cut off from his people. The source for this appears in this weeks reading: For whoever eats what is leavened, that person shall be cut off from the community of Israel (Ex. 12:19).
Karet (kar - et): spiritual, and sometimes physical, killing of guilty person and soul per G-d's law; heavenly eradication of the entire soul (neshamah) that disallows resurrection.

* "Cut from the people" in Hebrew culture means both physical and heavenly removal of the body and soul, from the earth and in heaven (bodies do not reside in heaven)

* Used a few times in association with sins that always require spiritual excision (no resurrection) by G-d in heaven (e.g.. idolatry); assumes no amount of repentance can save the soul; soul is eliminated; no return.

* Num. 15:30" "ti-karet ha-nefesh" - "that person (animal soul) will surely be cut off". The use of the term "nefesh" (animal soul) instead of the higher order soul (neshamah) indicates that which is closest to the physical body and its drives - it means kill the body and the soul will be cut off in heaven as well.

* Ex. 12:15: "...ah-kel cho-metz ve-ni-karet- tah ha-nefesh" means "eats unleavened bread that soul (nefesh, not nashamah) shall be cut off". This states that the soul will be cut off in heaven (i.e., no resurrection) and may imply an early death or a normal death in old age with no children born to the person, but no death via the court.
