תָּכִ֣ין לְךָ֮ הַדֶּרֶךְ֒ וְשִׁלַּשְׁתָּ֙ אֶת־גְּב֣וּל אַרְצְךָ֔ אֲשֶׁ֥ר יַנְחִֽילְךָ֖ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ וְהָיָ֕ה לָנ֥וּס שָׁ֖מָּה כָּל־רֹצֵֽחַ׃
你要為自己預備道路,又要將永恆者你的上帝使你承受為業之地的全境分為三段,好使一切殺人的都可以逃到那裡。
Kedushat Levi
Deuteronomy 19,3. “You shall prepare the way for yourself by dividing your territory into three sections;”
We know that it is impossible for the human brain to understand the essence of G’d. Since G’d is ever concerned with facilitating the Israelites’ coming closer to Him, He had progressively imposed restrictions on Himself through the three principal attributes that distinguished the patriarchs Avraham, Yitzchok and Yaakov, i.e. the attribute חסד, loving kindness,” יראה “manifestation of reverence and awe, and Yaakov’s attribute of practicing mercy. Moses refers to this division of G’d’s attributes into three distinct parts which when used properly enable the Jewish people to get a firm hold on their homeland, so that it may be described as ארצך, “your land.” This will prove to be the route by means of which you will attain your objective, i.e. דבקות ה', “close attachment to Hashem.”
