In the years following Hitler's rise to power, German Jews faced increasingly restrictive antisemitic laws, and many responded by fleeing to more tolerant countries. Cities of Refuge: German Jews in London and New York, 1935-1945 (SUNY Press, 2019), compares the experiences of Jewish refugees who immigrated to London and New York City by analyzing letters, diaries, newspapers, organizational documents, and oral histories. Lori Gemeiner-Bihler examines institutions, neighborhoods, employment, language use, name changes, dress, family dynamics, and domestic life in these two cities to determine why immigrants in London adopted local customs more quickly than those in New York City, yet identified less as British than their counterparts in the United States did as American. By highlighting a disparity between integration and identity formation, Gemeiner-Bihler challenges traditional theories of assimilation and provides a new framework for the study of refugees and migration.

When Jews lived in the Land of Israel and our religious judicial system was in force, we had 6 cities of refuge for someone who killed a person unintentionally (manslaughter). The killer would flee to a city of refuge and be safe there from any relatives of the victim wanting to avenge the murder.

Again, let me begin by thanking you for all the prayers for my grandson, Luke. Shortly after I finished posting my pastor's chat Sunday morning we received a call from Kimberly that the medical staff at the hospital found an infection on the shunt tubing and they would be taking Luke back to the OR to remove all the tubing that is involved in draining the excess fluid around the brain. This of course was not good news. Luke went back to the OR in the afternoon and went though a couple hours of surgery to remove all the infected tubing associated with the shunt all the way down to his stomach. Temporary tubing was put in coming directly out of his head to continue to drain this fluid. He did well through this surgery. Edith and I drove up to Roanoke Sunday afternoon and was able to spend some time with Luke and Kimberly in the PICU. He was resting well, and with the pressure gone seemed to be doing fine. After the infection is cleared, he will have another surgery, hopefully later this week, to replace the shunts and all the tubing. Please continue to pray! Thanks again for your continued enormous support, kind and encouraging words and of course your prayers!   In Joshua 13-19, the twelve tribes of Israel receive their inheritance of land from Joshua and the elders. After that was complete, in Joshua 20 the LORD reminded Joshua about the “cities of refuge” that He had given instructions about to Moses while the nation was still on the other side of the Jordan. God had told Moses to have the people set aside special cities for the Levites (Numbers 35:1-5), as well as six "cities of refuge". The cities of refuge are mentioned at least three times in Exodus 21:13, Numbers 35:6-34, and Deuteronomy 19:1-13. Now that the tribes had received their territories, Joshua could assign these cities.   Even before the Law of Moses was given, in Genesis 9:6, God had laid down the basic rule that those who shed blood should pay for their crime with their own blood. "Whoever sheds man's blood, By man his blood shall be shed; For in the image of God He made man.” This principle was enunciated repeatedly in the Law, but God made a distinction between murder and manslaughter (Exodus 21:12-14; Leviticus 24:17; Numbers 35:16-21; Deuteronomy 19:11-13. God had warned the Moses and the people that, "Blood defiles the land, and no atonement can be made for the land, for the blood that is shed on it, except by the blood of him who shed it. Therefore do not defile the land which you inhabit" (Numbers 35:33-34).   The six "cities of refuge" were needed because society in that day had no police force to investigate crimes. It was the responsibility of each family to see to it that murders were avenged, but how could they tell whether it was a case of premeditated murder or accidental manslaughter? In the heat of anger a relative of the dead person might kill somebody who was really innocent of a capital crime. Until there was an investigation, there was a “city of refuge” nearby that the “manslayer” could flee to for safety until a trial.   These cities of refuge are a beautiful picture of our salvation in Jesus Christ, to whom we "have fled for refuge" (Hebrews 6:18). The lost sinner, of course, is in danger of judgment because "the wages of sin is death" (Rom. 6:23). The avenger of blood is after him or her! God's appointed Savior is Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12), but the sinner must come to Him by faith in order to be saved (Matt. 11:28-30; John 6:37).   Today, if you have not yet been saved, please flee to Jesus Christ for salvation and safety!   God bless!

Joshua 20Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Say to the people of Israel, ‘Appoint the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you through Moses, that the manslayer who strikes any person without intent or unknowingly may flee there. They shall be for you a refuge from the avenger of blood. He shall flee to one of these cities and shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city and explain his case to the elders of that city. Then they shall take him into the city and give him a place, and he shall remain with them. And if the avenger of blood pursues him, they shall not give up the manslayer into his hand, because he struck his neighbor unknowingly, and did not hate him in the past. And he shall remain in that city until he has stood before the congregation for judgment, until the death of him who is high priest at the time. Then the manslayer may return to his own town and his own home, to the town from which he fled.'”So they set apart Kedesh in Galilee in the hill country of Naphtali, and Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim, and Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron) in the hill country of Judah. And beyond the Jordan east of Jericho, they appointed Bezer in the wilderness on the tableland, from the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead, from the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan, from the tribe of Manasseh. These were the cities designated for all the people of Israel and for the stranger sojourning among them, that anyone who killed a person without intent could flee there, so that he might not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, till he stood before the congregation. Sermon Questions:1. When have you seen your sin compound and accelerate division, conflict, or harm?2. When in your life have you felt physical and emotional safety?3. What thoughts does the idea of confessing draw to mind? e.g. fear, doubt, desperation, hope4. What would you like rest from? How can Jesus cover that?5. How have you added to/experienced a welcoming, shelthering community?6. Who do you need to confess to? who can you turn to, to confess with and point you to Jesus as refuge?

We are all guilty of sin and legally we stand before Christ condemned (Romans 3:19-20). God is the avenger who will bring about judgment and wrath on the Last Day. However, there is an escape for as there was for those fleeing to a city of refuge. Those who realize their sin and guilt which comes through regeneration run to Christ as He is the only escape as He is our only refuge. Those who run to Christ and take refuge in Him are set free by His death as He is the true anointed (the Christ) High Priest. His death is what pays our debt, allows us freedom, and results in no condemnation although we were guilty (simul Justus et peccator). Just as the cities of refuge were available to sojourns and aliens the gospel is extended to the Gentiles. All those who have not taken refuge in Christ will one day face the full wrath, fury, and vengeance of God. We as Christians have a refuge in our High Priest that we ran to for refuge, rescues, and atonement and have the privilege to run to every single second of the day in prayer and in His Word! This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, Christ is our refuge!

This week's Parashah is the 125th reading of our 3-year reading cycle and it entails the Torah of the Cities of Refuge. Herein we gain insight into the righteous concepts of atonement, redemption, and grace. Our text is found in Numbers 35.9-34 Key Terms and Concepts Discussed   Refuge (aka asylum): miq-lat Die or dying: mwt (mem-vav-tav) Kill or killer or murder or murderer; manslaying or manslayer: rot-zah. In our reading, Yehovah distinguishing for us the difference between murder/intentional homicide and what we call here in the West, manslaughter, accidental, or unintentional homicide. Yah's Torah of the Cities of Refuge clarifies the distinction between these two forms of killings/homicides. Besides distinguishing between intentional and unintentional homicide, Yehovah, through His instructions on the Cities of Refuge, further emphasized the extreme value that He places on life. Yah's extreme value for life must serve as a mandate for us to value life as He does. We value life in a Godly manner when we keep Yah's commandment to love our neighbor as ourselves (Lev 19.18) and to steadfastly enact righteous justice in our communities. Redeem; redeemer; avenger such as a blood avenger; to reclaim as one's own; to right a wrong or restore equilibrium: ga'al Blood; the shedding of blood; bloodguilt: dam Bribe; ransom (given to one who holds sway in a case to avoid impending judgment or punishment against a guilty party): ko'fair (ko'per) Strike; smite; to strike someone dead; to hit or injure another: neekah To flee (such as flee to a refuge city): nun-vav-semach Enmity or hostility: ehvah Witness: 'ed (ai-ed) Shabbat Shalom Beloved of Yeshua Messiah!

As we finish our journey through the Desert Wanderings, Fr. Mike zeroes in on the purpose of cities of refuge for the Israelites and the strong bond of community that they shared and maintained as the tribes grew. Today's readings are Numbers 35-36, Deuteronomy 34, and Psalm 121. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
