4 He shall flee to one of those cities, and shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and declare his cause in the ears of the Zakenim of that city; and they shall take him into the city to them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.

When they flee to one of these cities, they are to stand in the entrance of the city gate and state their case before the elders of that city. Then the elders are to admit the fugitive into their city and provide a place to live among them.
