Why Is the Command “Whoever Kills a Person” Mentioned Only in Parashat Matot? – Rashi’s Explanation

The essay explains why the law of impurity for one who kills a person appears in Parashat Matot rather than Chukat. Rashi teaches that it is not a new law but a clarification that touching an object connected to a corpse is like touching the corpse itself, with a spiritual lesson on attachment to Torah scholars.
