    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 1, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,127 views

    Today’s meditation is based on Numbers 35:15,“These will serve as cities of refuge for Israelites and for foreigners who are temporary or permanent residents. Anyone who kills someone accidentally can escape to one of them.” (GNB) When the people of Israel inherited the Promised Land, the Lord ...read more
