  • Num 26:33 : 33 Zelophehad son of Hepher had no sons, but only daughters. The names of Zelophehad’s daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
  • Num 36:1-9 : 1 The leaders of the ancestral families from the clan of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, from the families of the sons of Joseph, approached Moses and the leaders, the chiefs of the ancestral families of the Israelites. 2 They said, 'My lord, the LORD commanded to give the land as an inheritance to the Israelites by lot, and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad, our brother, to his daughters.' 3 'Now, if they marry someone from a different tribe of the Israelites, their inheritance will be taken from our ancestral inheritance and added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry. Thus, their inheritance will be removed from the lot of our inheritance.' 4 'And when the Jubilee for the Israelites comes, their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they are married and will be taken away from the inheritance of our ancestral tribe.' 5 Then Moses commanded the Israelites according to the word of the LORD, saying, 'What the tribe of the sons of Joseph is saying is right.' 6 'This is what the LORD has commanded concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying: They may marry whomever is good in their eyes, but they must marry someone within a clan of their father’s tribe.' 7 'Thus, no inheritance of the Israelites will transfer from one tribe to another, for each Israelite is to cling to the inheritance of their ancestral tribe.' 8 'Every daughter who inherits land from the tribes of Israel must marry within a clan of her father’s tribe, so that every Israelite may retain the inheritance of their ancestors.' 9 'No inheritance may be transferred from one tribe to another, for each Israelite tribe is to retain its inheritance.' 10 The daughters of Zelophehad did as the LORD commanded Moses. 11 Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, married their cousins. 12 They married into the clans of the descendants of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained within the tribe of their father’s clan.
  • Num 27:1-9 : 1 Then the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, from the clans of Manasseh the son of Joseph, came forward. These were the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. 2 They stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders, and the entire assembly at the entrance to the tent of meeting, and said: 3 Our father died in the wilderness. He was not part of the group that rebelled against the LORD during Korah’s assembly, but he died because of his own sin. He had no sons. 4 Why should our father’s name be removed from among his clan because he had no son? Give us property among our father’s relatives. 5 Moses brought their case before the LORD. 6 And the LORD said to Moses: 7 The daughters of Zelophehad are right. You must certainly give them property as an inheritance among their father’s relatives and transfer their father’s inheritance to them. 8 Speak to the Israelites and say: If a man dies and has no son, transfer his inheritance to his daughter. 9 If he has no daughter, give his inheritance to his brothers. 10 If he has no brothers, give his inheritance to his father’s brothers. 11 If his father has no brothers, give his inheritance to the nearest relative in his clan, and they shall possess it. This shall be a legal statute for the Israelites, as the LORD commanded Moses.
