Deuteronomy 21:5
Then the priests, the sons of Levi, are to come near; for they have been marked out by the Lord your God to be his servants and to give blessings in the name of the Lord; and by their decision every argument and every blow is to be judged:

--------------------

Deuteronomy 21:1
If, in the land which the Lord your God is giving you, you come across the dead body of a man in the open country, and you have no idea who has put him to death:

Deuteronomy 21:2
Then your responsible men and your judges are to come out, and give orders for the distance from the dead body to the towns round about it to be measured;

Deuteronomy 21:3
And whichever town is nearest to the body, the responsible men of that town are to take from the herd a young cow which has never been used for work or put under the yoke;

Deuteronomy 21:4
And they are to take the cow into a valley where there is flowing water, and which is not ploughed or planted, and there the neck of the cow is to be broken:

Deuteronomy 21:6
And all the responsible men of that town which is nearest to the dead man, washing their hands over the cow whose neck was broken in the valley,

Deuteronomy 21:7
Will say, This death is not the work of our hands and our eyes have not seen it.

Deuteronomy 21:8
Have mercy, O Lord, on your people Israel whom you have made free, and take away from your people the crime of a death without cause. Then they will no longer be responsible for the man's death.

Deuteronomy 21:9
So you will take away the crime of a death without cause from among you, when you do what is right in the eyes of the Lord.

Further, no price may be given for the life of one who has taken life and whose right reward is death: he is certainly to be put to death.

Numbers 35:32
And no price may be offered for one who has gone in flight to a safe town, for the purpose of letting him come back to his place before the death of the high priest.

Numbers 35:33
So do not make the land where you are living unholy: for blood makes the land unholy: and there is no way of making the land free from the blood which has come on it, but only by the death of him who was the cause of it.

Deuteronomy 17:8
If you are not able to give a decision as to who is responsible for a death, or who is right in a cause, or who gave the first blow in a fight, and there is a division of opinion about it in your town: then go to the place marked out by the Lord your God;

Deuteronomy 17:9
And come before the priests, the Levites, or before him who is judge at the time: and they will go into the question and give you a decision:

Deuteronomy 17:10
And you are to be guided by the decision they give in the place named by the Lord, and do whatever they say:

Deuteronomy 17:11
Acting in agreement with their teaching and the decision they give: not turning to one side or the other from the word they have given you.

For it is right for the priest's lips to keep knowledge, and for men to be waiting for the law from his mouth: for he is the servant sent from the Lord of armies.

And when he has taken his place on the seat of his kingdom, he is to make in a book a copy of this law, from that which the priests, the Levites, have in their care:
