Parshas Shoftim: The Mitzvah of Escorting Someone Out of your Home

Rabbi: Rabbi Nachi Klein

The Parsha concludes with the law of the eglah arufah—the special procedure to be followed when a person is killed by an unknown murderer and his body is found in a field. The law underscores the responsibility of the community and its leaders not only for what they must do in the aftermath of such a case, but also what they should have done to prevent such a case to begin with.
