Joshua 20:2 Cross References - LITV

² Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, Appoint cities of refuge for you, as I have spoken to you by the hand of Moses,

¹³ And he who does not lie in wait, and God lets fall into his hand, I will appoint a place for you where he may flee. ¹⁴ And when a man seethes insolently against his neighbor, to kill him by deceit, you shall take him from My altar to die.

⁶ And the cities which you shall give to the Levites shall be the six cities of refuge which you shall give for the manslayer that he may flee there; and besides them you shall give forty two cities.

¹¹ then you shall choose cities to be cities of refuge for you, so that the manslayer may flee there, he that kills a person through error. ¹² And the cities shall be to you for refuge from the kinsman avenger, that the manslayer may not die until he stands before the congregation for judgment. ¹³ As to the cities which you shall give six shall be cities of refuge for you. ¹⁴ You shall give three of the cities beyond the Jordan, and you shall give three of the cities in the land of Canaan; they shall be cities of refuge. ¹⁵ These six cities shall be for a refuge to the sons of Israel, and to an alien, and to a sojourner in their midst, that may flee there any person who kills anyone unawares. ¹⁶ And if he strikes him with an instrument of iron, and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall surely be put to death. ¹⁷ And if he strikes him with a stone in the hand, by which he dies, and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall certainly be put to death. ¹⁸ And if he strikes him with a wooden instrument in the hand, by which he dies, and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall certainly be put to death. ¹⁹ The avenger of blood shall himself put to death the murderer; when he meets with him, he shall put him to death. ²⁰ And if he pushes him down, or has thrown at him by lying in wait, and he dies; ²¹ or if he has struck him with his hand in enmity, and he dies, the striker shall certainly be put to death; he is a murderer. When the avenger of blood meets him he shall put to death the murderer. ²² And if in an instant he pushed him without enmity, or has thrown at him anything without lying in wait; ²³ or with any stone without seeing, by which he dies, and has caused it to fall on him, and he dies, and he is not an enemy to him, nor seeking his evil; ²⁴ then the congregation shall judge between the striker and the avenger of blood, by these judgments.

⁴¹ Then Moses separated three cities beyond the Jordan, toward the sunrising, ⁴² that the manslayer might flee there, he who killed his neighbor unawares, and did not hate him in times before, and that he fleeing to one of these cities might live: ⁴³ Bezer in the wilderness, in the tableland, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan for the Manassites.

² you shall separate three cities for you in the midst of your land, which Jehovah your God is giving you to possess it. ³ You shall prepare the way for yourself, and shall divide into three parts the border of your land which Jehovah your God shall cause you to inherit, so that every manslayer may flee there. ⁴ And this is the case of the manslayer who shall flee there, that he may live: whoever strikes his neighbor unawares, and has not hated him yesterday and the day before; ⁵ even he who goes into the forest with his neighbor to cut wood, and his hand brings a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the iron head slips from the wood and finds his neighbor so that he dies; he shall flee to one of these cities, and shall live; ⁶ that the avenger of blood not pursue the manslayer when his heart is hot, and shall overtake him because the way is long, and shall strike the life from him, and he had no sentence of death, for he did not hate him yesterday or the day before. ⁷ On account of this I am commanding you, saying, You shall separate to yourself three cities. ⁸ And if Jehovah your God shall enlarge your border, as He has sworn to your fathers, and shall give to you all the land which He has spoken to give to your fathers, ⁹ if you will keep these commandments which I am commanding you today, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in His ways forever, then you shall add to yourself another three cities to these three. ¹⁰ And innocent blood shall not be shed in the midst of your land, which Jehovah your God is giving to you as an inheritance, and there be blood on you. ¹¹ And if a man hates his neighbor, and lies in wait for him, and rises up against him, and strikes his life from him, so that he dies, and flees to one of these cities, ¹² then the elders of his city shall send and bring from him there, and give him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die. ¹³ Your eye shall not pity him, but you shall put away the innocent blood from Israel, and it shall be well with you.

¹ There is therefore now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to flesh, but according to Spirit.

³³ Who will bring any charge against God's elect? God is the One justifying! ³⁴ Who is he condemning? It is Christ who has died, but rather also is raised, who also is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.

¹⁸ that through two unchangeable things, in which it was not possible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, those having fled to lay hold on the hope set before us, ¹⁹ which we have as an anchor of the soul, both certain and sure, and entering into the inner side of the veil, Lev. 16:12
