'Set Apart' in the Bible

Then Moses set apart three cities {on the other side of the Jordan}, {toward the east},

[He set apart] Bezer in the wilderness in the land of the plateau of the Reubenites; Ramoth in Gilead of the Gadites, and Golan in Bashan of the Manassites.

At that time Yahweh set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to stand {before} Yahweh, to serve him and to bless [the people] in his name until this day.

you shall set apart three cities for you in the midst of your land that Yahweh your God [is] giving to you to take possession of it.

Therefore I [am] commanding you, {saying}, 'You shall set apart three cities.'
