Commentary on Numbers 35:9
God commanded establishment of cities of refuge—places where accidental killers could flee from revenge. This system demonstrated sophisticated justice distinguishing intentional murder from manslaughter. God's law protects both justice (punishing intentional crime) and mercy (sparing accidents). These cities prefigure Christ as refuge for sinners fleeing judgment.
