Numbers 35:28
“What does it mean that the manslayer, absolved after the death of the high priest, returns to his own land, except that the human race, which by sinning brought death upon itself, after the death of the true priest, namely our Redeemer, is loosed from the bonds of its sins and restored to the possession of paradise?”

26But if the slayer should in anywise go out beyond the bounds of the city whither he fled for refuge,
27and the avenger of blood should find him without the bounds of the city of his refuge, and the avenger of blood should kill the slayer, he is not guilty.
— Numbers 35:28 —
29And these things shall be to you for an ordinance of judgment throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
30Whoever kills a man, thou shalt slay the murderer on the testimony of witnesses; and one witness shall not testify against a soul that he should die.
