Numbers 36:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Numbers 36:6

4 And when ^athe Jubilee of the children of Israel comes, then their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry; so their inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.”

5 Then Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the Lord, saying: ^a“What the tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks is right.

6 This is what the Lord commands concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, ‘Let them marry whom they think best, ^abut they may marry only within the family of their father’s tribe.’

7 So the inheritance of the children of Israel shall not change hands from tribe to tribe, for every one of the children of Israel shall ^akeep the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.

8 And ^aevery daughter who possesses an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel shall be the wife of one of the family of her father’s tribe, so that the children of Israel each may possess the inheritance of his fathers.

9 Thus no inheritance shall change hands from one tribe to another, but every tribe of the children of Israel shall keep its own inheritance.”

10 Just as the Lord commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad;

11 ^afor Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married to the sons of their father’s brothers.
