Commentary on Numbers 35:16

Theological / Devotional

Instrument of iron. This phrase not only includes such weapons as swords and spears but various instruments made of iron, the primary function of which was not in war but in peaceful pursuits. It was the intent to kill, whether it was premeditated or was due to sudden anger, that is meant here.
