Numbers 35:27 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 35:27

And the revenger of blood find him without the borders of the
city of his refuge
Without the suburbs, fields, and vineyards belonging to it:

and the revenger of blood kill the slayer;
being exasperated against him, and to avenge the blood of his relation on him:

he shall not be guilty of blood;
or be reckoned murderer, or die for it.

25 And the congregacion shall delyuer the sleer out of the hande of the iudge of bloude and shall restore him agayne vnto the fraunchesed cytye whother he was fleed. And he shall byde there vnto the dethe off the hye preaste whiche was anoynted with holy oyle.

26 But and yf he came without the borders of his preuyleged citie whether he was fled

27 yf the bloudvenger fynde him without the borders of his fre towne he shall flee the murtherer and be giltlesse

28 because he shulde haue hidden in his fre towne vntyll the deth of the hye preaste and after the deth of the hye preast he shall returne agayne vnto the londe of his possessyon.

29 And this shalbe an ordinaunce and a lawe vnto you amonge youre childern after you in all youre habitacions.
