God’s Covenant with Noah Genesis 9 After the flood, God establishes His Covenant with Noah. “Whoso sheds man’s blood by man shall his blood be shed: for man is made in the image of God. ” Genesis 9: 6
Deuteronomy 19 The Cities of Refuge God Instructs Moses 1. “When the Lord your God cuts off the nations, whose land the Lord your God gives you& you succeed them & dwell in their cities & in their houses. 2 2. You shall separate 3 cities in the midst of your land, which the Lord your God gives you to possess it. 3. You shall prepare a way and divide the coasts of your land, which the Lord your God gives you to inherit, into 3 parts, that every slayer may flee there.
This is the case for the slayer who flees there that he may live: who kills his neighbor ignorantly, whom he did not hate in the time past; As when a man goes into the wood with his neighbor to hew wood & his hand fetches a stroke with the axe to cut down a tree, & the axe head slips and hits his neighbor that he die, he shall flee to one of those cities and live: Lest the Avenger of Blood pursue the slay while his heart is hot & overtake him, because the way is long & slay him; whereas he was not worthy of death since he hated him not in time past. Deuteronomy 19: 4 -6
When God enlarged their coasts, Israel was to add 3 more cities 6 Cities of Refuge “That innocent blood be not shed in your land, which the Lord your God gives you for an inheritance, & so blood be upon you. ” But if any man hate his neighbor & lie in wait for him & rise up against him & mortally smite that he die & flees to one of these cities: Then the elders of his city shall send & fetch him there & deliver him into the hand of the Avenger of Blood that he may die. Your eye shall not pity him, but you shall put away the guilt of innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well with you. Deut. 19: 10 -13
The 6 Cities of Refuge For Israel, for strangers, for travellers, for everyone And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying “speak to the children of Israel and say to them, when you come over Jordan to the land of Canaan’ (Numbers 35: 9 -15) Then shall you appoint cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee there who kills any person unawares. And they shall be cities of refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer not die, until he stands before the congregation in judgment.
God’s Rules for Murderers “And if he smites him with an instrument of iron so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death. Or if he smite him with throwing a stone so that he dies, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death. Or if he smite him with a hand weapon of wood so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death. The Avenger of Blood himself shall slay the murderer: when Numbers 35: 16 -19 he meets him, he shall slay him. ”
Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer & the Avenger of blood according to those judgments. The congregation shall deliver The slayer out of the hand of the Avenger, & restore him to the city of his refuge, where he fled, & he shall abide in it until the high Priest’s death, who was anointed with holy oil. But if the slayer at any time come out of the city’s borders of the city of refuge, & the Avenger of Blood kills the slayer: he shall not be guilty of blood. , . (Num. 35: 24 - 29)
Because he should have remained in the city of Refuge until the High Priest’s death. Num. 35: 28
Our City of Refuge 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Appointed by God Sanctuary from the Avenger Ruled by the High Priest Populated by the Priests & Elders Located in the highest places Road is clearly marked : “ the Straight Path” 7. Only for the Innocent 8. Available to All 9. For Those who do not want to Leave!

Deut. 21 1 -9 “If one is found slain in the land which the Lord your God give you to possess, lying the in the field and it is not known who has slain him Then your elders & your judges shall come forth & they shall measure unto the cities that are round about the slain man. And it shall be, the city closest to the slain man, even the city elders shall take a heifer that has not been wrought with or drawn the yoke And the city elders shall bring down the heifer to a rough valley that is not eared or sown and shall strike off the heifer’s neck in the valley. And all the cities elders that are next to the slain man shall wash their hands over the heifer that is beheaded in the valley. They shall answer & say ‘Our hands have not shed blood, nor have our eyes seen it. Be merciful of Lord, unto your people Israel whom You have redeemed & lay not innocent blood to their charge. And the blood shall be forgiven them. So shall you put away the guilt of innocent blood from among you. Unsolved

Revelation Chapters 4 & 5 The Throne Room & The Scroll
And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, ‘Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

And I wept much because no man was found worthy to open & to read the Book, or to look therein Revelation 5: 2 -4
“And one of the elders said to me, ‘Weep not: Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the book, and to loose the 7 seals. ’ Revelation 5: 5
I beheld and lo, in the midst of the throne & of the 4 beasts, & in the midst of the 24 elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having 7 horns & 7 eyes, which are the 7 Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. ’ Revelation 5: 6
Opening the 4 Seals
“And when He opened the 5 th seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them were slain for the Word of God, & for the testimony which they held.

“And the armies which are in Heaven followed Him on white horses, clothed in fine linen. White & clean. Out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should smite the nations: & He treads the winepress of the wrath of fierceness & wrath of Almighty God. He has a name on His vesture & on His thigh written King of Kings & Lord of Lords. ” Revelation 19: 14 -16
The Book of Revelation tells us the order of these events The Old Testament Prophets tell us Who is under judgment… What Bloodguilt demands… Why God is Angry… Where Messiah Goes… How Jesus Will Work…
“Who is this who come from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? That is glorious in His apparel, travelling in the greatness of His strength? Isaiah 63: 1 -5 I that speak am Mighty to Save. Why are You red in Your apparel, & Your garments like Him who treads the wine vat? ‘I have tread the winepress alone; & of the people there was none with Me: for I will tread them in My anger, & trample them in My fury; & their blood shall be upon My garments, & I will stain all My raiment. For the Day of Vengeance is in My heart & the year of My redeemed is come. And I looked and there was no one to help; & I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore My own arm brought salvation to Me; & My fury upheld Me. ”
More from Isaiah 34: 1 -8 1. ”Come near you nations to hear: & hearken you people: let the earth ear & all that is therein; the world & all things that come forth out of it. 2. For the indignation of the Lord is on all nations & His fury upon all their armies: He has utterly destroyed them, He has delivered them to slaughter. 3. Their slain also shall be cast out and their stink shall come up out of their carcasses, & the mountains shall be melted with their blood. The Lord will require their blood be poured out for their deeds.
5. For My sword shall be bathed in heaven: Behold it shall come down on Edom & upon the people of My curse to judgment. 6. The sword of the Lord is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness & with the blood of lambs & goats, with the fat of the kidneys rams: Isaiah 34: 5 -6
4. And all the hosts of heaven shall be rolled together as a scroll: & all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falls off the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree. Exactly same as Rev. 6: 13 -14
7. “And the unicorns shall come down with them & the bullocks with the bulls; & their dust made fat with fatness. 8. For is the Day of the Lord’s Vengeance & the Year of recompenses for the Controversy of Zion.
