תָּכִ֣ין לְךָ֮ הַדֶּרֶךְ֒ וְשִׁלַּשְׁתָּ֙ אֶת־גְּב֣וּל אַרְצְךָ֔ אֲשֶׁ֥ר יַנְחִֽילְךָ֖ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ וְהָיָ֕ה לָנ֥וּס שָׁ֖מָּה כָּל־רֹצֵֽחַ׃
Prepararás para ti o caminho e dividirás em três partes a fronteira da tua terra que Yehovah, teu Elohim, faz com que herdes; e será para fugir para lá todo aquele que matar.
Jerusalem Talmud Makkot
“Divide into three parts51Divide both the Land of Israel and Transjordan into three Voronoi domains each so that the nearest city of refuge always was indicated on the sign posts.. That it should be from Hebron to (Jehudah)78Read with the Tosephta and the Babli: From the Southern border to Hebron. as from Hebron to Sichem and from Hebron to Sichem as from Sichem to Qedesh.”
