Joshua 20 - Laws Concerning Murder | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

In this video listen to Joshua 20 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer.In Joshua 20 the cities of refuge are assigned. These cities were mentioned in Numbers 35 and in Deuteronomy 4 and 19. Now they are assigned. The six cities are: Kedesh - which means holy - devoted to God’s work Shechem - the shoulder - the government shall be on his shoulders (Isaiah 9:6) Hebron - Fellowship - also the highest elevated place in Palestine.When we in Christ come into fellowship with one another, we are all elevated. Bezer - Fortress - the Lord is our Strength. Ramoth Gilead - Height - the Lord is lifted up. Golan - To remove - the Lord has removed our transgressions from us. Each of the cities is a picture of Christ because we run to Christ for our refuge. Here each of the cities highlight a quality of Christ.
