If the position is not inherited, he is certainly not reinstated]._*Rabbi Meir: His former position is reinstated* as it states “and to the possession of his fathers he shall return”, *this includes positions of authority.*The _possuk_ repeats *“he shall return”,* to teach that *the same applies to _galus_* of a murderer. As in the *Beraisa:*“The murderer *shall return* to the land of his inheritance”.*Rabbi Yehuda:* He returns *only to inherited land,* but not to any positions he held before _galus._*Rabbi Meir: He returns to his inheritance as well, since the _possuk_ uses the words “shall return”* as in the case of the Hebrew slave.
