What does Exodus 12:19 mean?

For those seven days, there can’t be any yeast in your homes. If anyone—whether they’re part of Israel or just living with you—eats anything with yeast, they’re out of the community. Exodus 12:19 - Modern Text Bible

(The rule applies to everyone in the community, not just Israelites. It’s about unity and shared commitment.)
