Self Defense and the Law
If you're studying the martial arts as a form of self-defense, you should be aware that many of the tactics taught in your school were developed for battle situations might be illegal today. The law is very strict about how you can use your training to defend yourself, and if you choose to ignore them, you might end up in jail -- which is probably a bit more dangerous than whatever threat you were facing in the first place

IV-10 Massei Cities of Refuge
Massei gives a summary of the marches that occured during the Exodus from Egypt, listing the various places where the Israelites strayed. Forty-two places are named relating to forty-two levels of spirituality. After the mention of Aaron's death on Mt Hor, the account of travels becomes more detailed in preparation for entry into the Promised Land. The passage details the boundaries of the land, setting the traditional borders. Moses portions the lands to eleven tribes and establishes the laws of inheritance for the Daughters of Zelophehad (see Nr 27:1-11). Because the Levites do not inherit land as a tribe, they aer given six cities of refuge with pasture land assigned to them. The cities are designated as places of asylum for anyone who committed accidental manslaughter. Scripture distinguishes between accidental death, murder and self-defense.
