6 lest the redeemer of blood pursue after the man-slayer when his heart is hot, and hath overtaken him (because the way is great), and hath smitten him -- the life, and he hath no sentence of death, for he is not hating him heretofore;

Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 6. Lest the punishment of destroying the influx of good and truth from the Lord should follow such a one for the destruction of charity while his will is imbued with the evil proceeding from false doctrine, and come upon him so as to destroy his spiritual life, because he is far removed from real truth; whereas his interior will is not in a state of condemnation, inasmuch as the destruction of charity does not proceed from a heart averse to all good and truth (but from mistaken tenets).
