8. What is a City of Refuge? Deuteronomy 19: 3-6 โโThou shalt prepare the way and divide the border of thy land, which the Lord your Master gives thee to inherit, into three parts, that every slayer may flee thither. And this is the case of the slayer who shall flee there, that he may live, whoever unwittingly kills his neighbor, whom he hated not in time past; as when a man goes into the forest with his neighbor to hew wood, and his hand fetches a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the head slips from the handle and strikes his neighbor, that he shall die; he shall flee to one of the cities (of refuge) and live: lest the avenger of blood pursue the slayer while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and slay him.โ
