Obtenha a appDaily Bible Reading – October 2022: God’s Renewing Word of Peace and JusticeExemplo
October 26
Introduction
Today’s reading describes the establishment of cities of refuge—cities where a person who accidentally kills someone may escape and be safe. The subject of witnesses and punishment for making false accusations concludes the chapter.
Scripture Reading
Deuteronomy 19:1-21
Today’s Key Verse: Deuteronomy 19:10
Do this, so that innocent people will not die and so that you will not be guilty of putting them to death in the land that the LORD is giving you.
Reflect
The establishment of cities of refuge was designed to allow time to review evidence to determine whether a killing had been intentional or accidental and to prevent people from taking the law into their own hands and seeking vengeance. What are your thoughts concerning the establishment of places of refuge? Are there such places today?
Pray
Lord God, teach me your ways of love and compassion. May all I say and do this day bring praise and honor to your holy name. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Ezekiel 18:1-20: Intergenerational punishment is discussed.
