Numbers 35:18 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 35:18

Or if he smote him with an hand weapon of wood
A stick, or staff, or club:

wherewith he may die, and he die;
which is sufficient to kill a man, as the same Targum explains it; and a man dies with the blow that is given him by it:

he is a murderer, and the murderer shall surely be put to death;
no pardon given him, or the benefit of the city of refuge allowed him.

Numbers 35:18 In-Context

16 si quis ferro percusserit et mortuus fuerit qui percussus est reus erit homicidii et ipse morietur
17 si lapidem iecerit et ictus occubuerit similiter punietur
18 si ligno percussus interierit percussoris sanguine vindicabitur
19 propinquus occisi homicidam interficiet statim ut adprehenderit eum percutiet
20 si per odium quis hominem inpulerit vel iecerit quippiam in eum per insidias
