Primary Verses:
-
Numbers 35:25-28
-
"And the congregation shall
deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of
blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the
city of his refuge, whither he was fled: and
he shall abide in it
unto the death of the high priest, which
was anointed with the holy oil. But if the slayer shall
at any time come without the border of the city of his
refuge, whither he was fled; And the revenger of blood
find him without the borders of the city of his refuge,
and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; he shall not
be guilty of blood: Because he should have remained in
the city of his refuge until the death of the high
priest: but after the death of the high priest the
slayer shall return into the land of his possession."
