Fri, 5 Sep 2008 12:00:00 EST http://www.chabadplace.org/article.asp?aid=2279 http://www.chabadplace.org/article.asp?aid=2279 The Torah instructs that judges and officers are to be appointed "in all your city gates" -- wherever Jews live; but that the "cities of refuge" are to be established only in the land of Israel. Why this distinction between judgement and atonement, between the law and refuge from retribution?
