Numbers 35:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Numbers 35:17

15 These six cities shall be for refuge for the children of Israel, ^afor the stranger, and for the sojourner among them, that anyone who kills a person accidentally may flee there.

16 ^a‘But if he strikes him with an iron implement, so that he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall surely be put to death.

17 And if he strikes him with a stone in the hand, by which one could die, and he does die, he is a murderer; the murderer shall surely be put to death.

18 Or if he strikes him with a wooden hand weapon, by which one could die, and he does die, he is a murderer; the murderer shall surely be put to death.

19 ^aThe avenger of blood himself shall put the murderer to death; when he meets him, he shall put him to death.
