Striking Point Parshas Massai

Those who were jailed in the Ir Miklat (city of refuge for one that killed someone by accident) were freed upon the death of the Kohen Gadol. The only such clause in the Torah were one has to wait for someones death.

The ONLY death recorded in the Torah with a date of his petira, is that of Ahron- the Kohen Gadol.
Both are mentioned in this weeks Parsha.
