Listen to Números 35:33

Números 35:33 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 35:33

So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are
The land of Canaan, as it had been by the old inhabitants of it, by idolatry, adultery, and murder:

for blood it defileth the land:
the shedding of innocent blood defiles a nation, and the inhabitants of it, brings guilt thereon, and subjects to punishment:

and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but
by the blood of him that shed it;
or "there can be no expiation" F2, or "atonement made" for it in any other way; the blood of the murderer is required at his hands, and nothing short of it will satisfy law and justice, see ( Genesis 9:6 ) .

F2 (rpky al) "non posset expiatio", Junius & Tremellius, Piscator; to the same sense Pagninus, Montanus, Tigurine version.

Números 35:33 In-Context

31 Y no tomarĂ©is precio por la vida del homicida; porque estĂ¡ condenado a muerte; mas indefectiblemente morirĂ¡.
32 Ni tampoco tomarĂ©is precio del que huyĂ³ a su ciudad de acogimiento, para que vuelva a vivir en su tierra, hasta que muera el sacerdote.
33 Y no contaminarĂ©is la tierra donde estuviereis; porque esta sangre contaminarĂ¡ la tierra; y la tierra no serĂ¡ expiada de la sangre que fue derramada en ella, sino por la sangre del que la derramĂ³.
34 No contaminĂ©is, pues, la tierra donde habitĂ¡is, en medio de la cual yo habito; porque yo el SEĂ‘OR habito en medio de los hijos de Israel.
