0:00.0	A reading from the book of Deuteronomy.
0:04.9	If in the land that the Lord your God is giving you to possess, someone is found slain,
0:10.0	lying in the open country, and it is not known who killed him.
0:13.7	Then your elders and your judges shall come out, and they shall measure the distance to the surrounding cities.
0:18.9	And the elders of the city that is nearest to the slain man
0:21.4	shall take a heifer that has never been worked and that is not pulled in a yoke. And the elders of that
