TT4T#84 - A Killer Question - 2/24/17

Within our parsha are instructions as to what to do with a murderer who kills without intent. We learn about cities of refuge, created to house these people, and elsewhere in the Torah, we learn about their placement throughout the land of Israel. This Ten elaborates on a difficult question found in the gemara relating to this placement: Why did the 2.5 eastern tribes need so many cities of refuge? The answers might shock you.
