Deuteronomio 19:10 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 19:10

That innocent blood be not shed
As it would be if such a slayer as before described was killed by the avenger of blood, before he could get to one of these cities of refuge, or supposing that they had not bean appointed, or a sufficient number of them:

which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance;
to be enjoyed by them and their children after them, provided they did not defile it by their sins, but observed the commands of the Lord to obey them and

so blood be upon thee;
the guilt of innocent blood crying for vengeance, as would be the case if such a man's blood was shed as before described; it seems as if the guilt would rather affect the whole land, for not having a proper provision of "asylums" for such persons, than the avenger of blood.

Deuteronomio 19:10 In-Context

8 »Si el SEÑOR tu Dios extiende tu territorio, como se lo juró a tus antepasados, y te da toda la tierra que te prometió,

9 y si tú obedeces todos estos mandamientos que hoy te ordeno, y amas al SEÑOR tu Dios y andas siempre en sus caminos, entonces apartarás tres ciudades más.

10 De este modo no se derramará sangre inocente en la tierra que el SEÑOR tu Dios te da por herencia, y tú no serás culpable de homicidio.

11 »Pero si un hombre odia a su prójimo y le prepara una emboscada, y lo asalta y lo mata, y luego busca refugio en una de esas ciudades,

12 los ancianos de su ciudad mandarán arrestarlo y lo entregarán al vengador para que lo mate.
