* ye shall appoint.
   As the {goel,} or kinsman, had a right to avenge the death of
   his relation, by slaying the murderer wherever he found him,
   the appointment of these cities was a humane institution for
   the protection of the involuntary homicide; for they were
   designed only for the protection of such.
