'Distance' in the Bible

Since hile the distance may be great, the angry avenger may overtake the killer he is pursuing and kill him, in which case there will be no justice in his death, because he did not hate his friend previously.

then let your elders and judges go out and measure the distance from the dead body to the neighboring cities.

You'll see the land from a distance, but you won't be able to enter the land that I am about to give to the Israelis."
