There are interesting differences in what the punishments are in the chapter. Yes. for some, it is very clear they are to die if they disobey. God is setting up a kingdom with Israel where He is to be king. Idolatry and spiritualism are in this time and in this nation, treason. Treason is punishable by death. Some acts of disobedience end in childlessness. Some acts call for the people to be cut off (separated from, ostracized) from the people of Israel. God's reasons are because if they act like the nations around them they will end up like the nations around them, conquered and driven off (verses 22-24 ).
