  1. The cities of the Levites:
    • Hashem spoke to Moshe by the Jordan saying that he is to command Bnei Yisrael to distribute cities to the Levites from amongst their inheritance of land.
    • The space surrounding the cities: The Levite cities are to contain an open space of 1000 Amos surrounding their cities to be designated for their animals and property. The city is to have a total of 2000 Amos of open space surrounding it, [the first thousand as a Migrash and the second for their fields and vineyards].
    • The cities of refuge: The Levites are to receive six cities of refuge for murderers to seek refuge in, and 42 cities for them to dwell in, for a total of 48 cities.
    • From whose property are the Levite cities appropriated: Those tribes who have a larger portion of land are to allocate from within their property more cities to the Levites, while those tribes who have a smaller portion of land are to give them less cities.
