Exegesis
The noun makom {מָקוֹם | mā-qôm} ‘place’ is modified by the relative clause introduced by asher {אֲשֶׁר | ʾă-šer} ‘where’ followed by the imperfect yanus {יָנוּס | yā-nûs} ‘he may flee’ and the locative shamah {שָׁמָּה | šā-mah} defining the sanctuary’s function within the legal framework.
In context — Exodus 21:13
If he did not lie in wait but God delivered him into his hand, then I will appoint for you a place where he may flee.
