"And this is the teaching that Moses placed before the Children of Israel." Deuteronomy 4:44
"And…" The preceding verses discuss the laws of the cities of refuge. Once the Israelites went
into exile, they no longer had cities of refuge to hide in. However, the Torah continued to provide
them "spiritual refuge" and "safety" wherever they went. How?
Yahveh provides forgiveness and safety (refuge) from the effects of sin.
