Commentary for Deuteronomy 13:12

וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל יִשְׁמְע֖וּ וְיִֽרָא֑וּן וְלֹֽא־יוֹסִ֣פוּ לַעֲשׂ֗וֹת כַּדָּבָ֥ר הָרָ֛ע הַזֶּ֖ה בְּקִרְבֶּֽךָ׃ (ס)

And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wickedness as this is in the midst of thee.

Sforno on Deuteronomy

וכל ישראל ישמעו וייראו ולא יוסיפו, neither the seducer himself nor others who found him convincing.

Tur HaArokh

ולא יוסיפו לעשות כדבר הרע הזה, “so that they shall not continue to commit such evils.” If the law against people preaching idolatry publicly or privately were not strictly enforced such a “disease” would become an epidemic.
