  1. Deut.19:4-6– “4 And this is the case of the manslayer, that shall flee thither and live: whoso killeth his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in time past; 5 as when a man goeth into the forest with his neighbor to hew wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the head slippeth from the helve, and lighteth upon his neighbor, so that he dieth; he shall flee unto one of these cities and live: 6 lest the avenger of blood pursue the manslayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and smite him mortally; whereas he was not worthy of death, inasmuch as he hated him not in time past.” 2/26/2006 – Alex D.

  2. Josh.20:7-9– “7 And they set apart Kedesh in Galilee in the hill-country of Naphtali, and Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and Kiriath-arba (the same is Hebron) in the hill-country of Judah. 8 And beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness in the plain out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh. 9 These were the appointed cities for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that whosoever killeth any person unwittingly might flee thither, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stood before the congregation.” 2/26/2006 – Alex D.

  3. Heb.6:17-19– “17 Wherein God, being minded to show more abundantly unto the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath; 18 that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us: 19 which we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and stedfast and entering into that which is within the veil;” Our city of refuge today is New Jerusalem cf.Heb.11:10,16; 12:22-24; Rev.21:1,2 2/26/2006 – Alex D.

  5. No refuge outside of the city of refuge • No refuge outside of Jesus/New Jerusalem • One might need directions to the city of refuge (map) • One needs directions to Christ (Bible) • The cities of refuge were for the innocent only • Christ is for the guilty if they will obey Him • They had refuge as long as the High Priest lived • Christ is our High Priest for ever – thus, we can have an eternal refuge in Christ 2/26/2006 – Alex D.
