Faith: In the Old Testament, Why Did God Randomly Forgive Manslaughterers Once the High Priest Died? It Wasn’t Random, And the Answer Is Remarkable

Those who would argue that the New Testament completely supplants the truths contained in the Old Testament need to take a closer look at their Bible.

Jesus Christ himself said, “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets [i.e., the Old Testament]; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished.”

Moses actually offered an interesting foreshadowing of Jesus in Numbers, chapter 35. He wrote about the six cities of refuge that God wanted established in the Promised Land.
