(Devarim 13:13) "If you hear": There is no need to press an inquiry.

I might think, then, that one need not pursue it, (even if he did hear); it is, therefore, written (15) "And you shall inquire, and you shall search out, and you shall ask well."

3
English · Shraga Silverstein

"in one of your cities": one city is made "a condemned city," and not three. I might think, not even two; it is, therefore, written "your cities."

"which the L-rd your G-d gives to you": to exclude (cities) outside of Eretz Yisrael.

5
English · Shraga Silverstein

"to dwell there": to exclude Jerusalem, which was not apportioned (among the tribes) for dwelling.
