Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the slayer shall return into the land of his possession.
Porque la persona que mató a alguien accidentalmente debía haberse quedado en la ciudad de refugio hasta que muriera el sumo sacerdote. Pero después de que muera el sumo sacerdote, el que causó la muerte puede regresar a su propia propiedad.
El homicida accidental debe permanecer en la ciudad de refugio hasta la muerte del sumo sacerdote para poder regresar a su tierra.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the ancient Israelite society, as outlined in the Book of Numbers, cities of refuge were designated places where someone who accidentally killed another person could flee to avoid immediate revenge from the victim's family. This system was part of the Mosaic Law, ensuring that justice was administered fairly rather than through personal vendettas, and it reflected God's concern for protecting the innocent while upholding community order. Once the high priest died, the individual could return home, symbolizing a release that balanced mercy with accountability.
