These chapters deal with the distribution of land according to lot. Cities of asylum are set up "to which one guilty of accidental and unintended homicide may flee for asylum for the avenger of blood". The need to limit bloodshed is an already established ancient need at this time. The power of the word of God is prominent. "Not a single promise that the Lord made to the house of Israel was broken; every one was fulfilled."
