Subject: Re: City of refuge

Gershon [Tf n4 v13] asks for sources of the extra 3 cities of refuge in the
time of Mashiach. This is explicitly discussed in Rambam, Laws of Murder
Chap 8.

From the verse(s) >  >  When God will widen your land....and you will add 3
other cities...<  <   (In Deut) we learn that God will add to the present
Israel (in the time of Mashiach) and then we will have 3 more cities.

Also see Rashi on the verses cited there
