*19.5 Makkos Daf 12 B (11 lines Up)**Summary**Gemara:**Beraisa:* _[The following possuk was said at the beginning of the 40 year sojourn in the desert]_ “I will make a place for you [Moshe] where the murderer may find asylum” This teaches that *the cities were allocated while Moshe was yet alive* (14.2, 15.3).“A place” this teaches ‘like your place’ where Moshe resided *in the section of Levi.*“Where the murderer may find asylum” this teaches that if a murder would have happened *in the wilderness* they would have been able to find asylum in the section of Levi.*A _levi_* who murdered may find asylum *in a different city, or in his city* [in a different section, and he must be confined to that section. _Tosafos_ ].*Rav Acha bar Ika:* We learn this from the _possuk_ “He must dwell within his city of asylum”, sometimes he can find asylum *within the city where he previously found asylum.* See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
