4:41-43 Setting Apart Cities of Refuge. Three cities, Bezer, Ramoth, and Golan, are set apart in Transjordan as places to which a person guilty of manslaughter can flee to evade revenge from the dead person's family (see also Num. 35:9-28). In Deut. 19:1-13, three more cities west of the Jordan are set apart for the same purpose.
