RF NUM 35:1 Cities Ordered for the Levites.
The EVER-LIVING spoke to Moses at the Fords of Moab by the Jordan opposite Jeriko, saying;
RF NUM 35:2 "Command the children of Israel, that they must give to the Levites, as a heritable portion, towns for residence, with pastures around those towns, for the Levites.
RF NUM 35:3 And the towns shall be for their residence, and the pastures for their cattle and their animals.
RF NUM 35:4 The pastures which you are to give to the Levites outside the walls of the towns shall be a space of two thousand cubits.
RF NUM 35:5 You shall thus measure from the outside wall of the towns, on the eastern side, two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side, two thousand cubits; with the town in the centre.
RF NUM 35:6 These shall be the pasture lands of those towns. "You shall also assign to the Levites these towns;—six cities of refuge to be provided for man-slayers.
RF NUM 35:7 And beside them provide forty-two cities—a total of forty-eight. All these towns shall be assigned to the Levites, being for them, and their pasturage.
RF NUM 35:8 But the towns that you assign from the children of Israel shall be according to their numbers, large, and according to their fewness, small,—each according to the extent of the district which they inherit shall give towns to the Levites. According to their shares, they shall assign equivalent towns to the Levites."
RF NUM 35:9 Cities of Refuge Ordered.
The EVER-LIVING also spoke to Moses, commanding;—
RF NUM 35:10 "Speak to the children of Israel and say to them; "You are now about to pass over the Jordan to the land of Canaan.
RF NUM 35:11 Therefore appoint for yourselves Cities of Refuge, that man-slayers, who have cut off a life by accident, may fly to them.
RF NUM 35:12 And they shall be your Cities of Refuge from the Avenger, so that the fugitive may not be killed, until he has stood in the presence of a jury for trial.
RF NUM 35:13 Therefore shall you appoint six Cities of Refuge for yourselves.
RF NUM 35:14 You shall appoint three of the Cities on this side the Jordan, and three Cities in the land of Canaan, to be Cities of Refuge, for the children of Israel and for foreigners residing among you.
RF NUM 35:15 These three cities shall be Cities of Refuge for everyone who has cut off a life by accident.
RF NUM 35:16 Thus if he strikes any with an instrument of iron, and he dies, he is a man-slayer; the man-slayer would be killed;
RF NUM 35:17 or if he throws a stone which wounds mortally, and the wounded dies, he is a man-slayer; the man-slayer would be killed;
RF NUM 35:18 or strikes with an instrument of wood a deadly blow, and the wounded dies from it, he is a man-slayer; the man-slayer would be killed.
RF NUM 35:19 The Avenger would kill the wounder; he would kill the wounder when found would kill him.
RF NUM 35:20 "But if from hatred he stabs or shoots at one from a hiding place, and kills,
RF NUM 35:21 or from hatred strikes with his hand, and kills; he shall be killed who has struck the wound; The Avenger of Blood shall kill the wounder when he finds him.
RF NUM 35:22 "But if undesignedly, not from enmity, one stabs or shoots another with any instrument, not treacherously, or kills with a stone, not having seen;—
RF NUM 35:23 or it falls upon a person who dies,—whom he did not hate, and did not seek to injure,—
RF NUM 35:24 then the jury shall judge between the accused and the Avenger, according to these rules;
RF NUM 35:25 and the jury shall deliver the accused from the hand of the Avenger. But the jury shall assign him to the City of Refuge to which he shall go, and stay there until the death of the High Priest who has been consecrated with the Oil of Consecration.
RF NUM 35:26 "But if the man-slayer goes beyond the boundaries of the City of Refuge to which he has fled;
RF NUM 35:27 and the Avenger of Blood meets him outside the bounds of the City of Refuge, then the Avenger of Blood may kill the slayer, without blood being upon himself;
RF NUM 35:28 for he ought to have remained in the City of Refuge until the death of the High Priest. But after the death of the High Priest the man-slayer may reside in his own district.
RF NUM 35:29 The Constitutional Law of Murder.
"These shall be Constitutional Laws to your descendants, in all your residences:—
RF NUM 35:30 "Whoever cuts off a life, the slayer shall be slain on the evidence of two witnesses; but upon the evidence of one you shall not condemn a person to death.
RF NUM 35:31 And you shall not take any ransom for a life; the man-slayer who mortally injures, shall die a death.
RF NUM 35:32 You shall also not accept a ransom from the refugee to a City of Refuge, to return to rest in the country, until the death of the priest,
RF NUM 35:33 so that you may not corrupt the land you reside in; for blood pollutes the land, and the land will not cover the blood that is shed upon it; for the life is in the blood;
RF NUM 35:34 consequently you shall not defile the land you dwell in,—amidst which I encamp,—for I, the EVER-LIVING, encamp in the midst of the children of Israel."
