In our reading today of Deuteronomy 21, we learn about the law of God concerning unsolved murders within the community of His people. If a person was found dead, the elders and judges would measure the distance to the nearest city. The city closest to the victim was assumed to be the place where the murderer resided. The elders of that city would, then, take responsibility and perform the rituals set in place by God to absolve their community from the sin. This is how life was to be reckoned in the place where God had set them. The elders would testify that neither they nor the people of their city had committed the murder or witnessed it. Then they would appeal to God that He would not hold them all guilty for what had been done by one. It is Old Testament law, but the principle remains the same: We should take responsibility for our public sins and ask the LORD for His forgiveness.
