Commentary on Numbers 15:35

Theological / Devotional

Shall stone him. This was the penalty for outstanding crimes (Lev. 20:2 ; 24:14). This man was the first to break the holy Sabbath since the giving of the law, at least so far as the record is concerned.

Without the camp. Probably to avoid ceremonial defilement of the camp (see Acts 7:58; Heb. 13:12).
