Today's Bible Verse: "These were the cities designated for all the people of Israel and for the stranger sojourning among them, that anyone who killed a person without intent could flee there, so that he might not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, till he stood before the congregation." — Joshua 20:9 

What does the Bible teach us about God's justice and mercy? Joshua 20:9 reveals God's heart for both accountability and compassion. The cities of refuge provided protection for people who caused accidental harm, giving them a place to find safety while ensuring that justice could still be carried out through a proper trial.
