CHAP. XXXVI.
1 The inconvenience of the inheritance of
daughters, 5 is remedied by marrying in
their own tribes, 7 lest the inheritance should
be removed from the tribe. 10 The daughters
of Zelophehad marry their father's
brothers' sons.
1 And the chief fathers of the families
of the children of Gilead, the son of
Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families
of the sons of Joseph, came near,
and spoke before Moses, and before the
princes, the chief fathers of the children
of Israel:
2 And they said, note The Lord commanded
my lord to give the land for an
inheritance by lot to the children of Israel:
and my lord was commanded by
the Lord to give the inheritance of Zelophehad
our brother to his daughters.
3 And if they shall be married to any
of the sons of the other tribes of the children
of Israel, then will their inheritance
be taken from the inheritance of our fathers,
and will be put to the inheritance
-- --
Before CHRIST, 1451.
of the tribe note into which they are received:
so it will be taken from the lot of our
inheritance.
4 And when the jubilee of the children
of Israel shall be, then will their inheritance
be put to the inheritance of the tribe
into which they are received: so shall
their inheritance be taken away from the
inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.
5 And Moses commanded the children
of Israel according to the word of the
Lord, saying, The tribe of the sons of
Joseph hath said well.
6 This is the thing which the Lord
doth command concerning the daughters
of Zelophehad, saying, Let them note marry
to whom they think best; only to the
family of the tribe of their father shall
they marry.
7 So shall not the inheritance of the
children of Israel remove from tribe to
tribe: for every one of the children of
Israel shall note keep himself to the inheritance
of the tribe of his fathers.
8 And every daughter, that possesseth
an inheritance in any tribe of the children
of Israel, shall be wife to one of the
family of the tribe of her father, that the
children of Israel may enjoy every man
the inheritance of his fathers.
9 Neither shall the inheritance remove
from one tribe to another tribe; but every
one of the tribes of the children of Israel
shall keep himself to his own inheritance.
10 ¶2; Even as the Lord commanded
Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad:
11 noteFor Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah,
and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of
Zelophehad, were married to their father's
brothers' sons:
12 And they were married note into the
families of the sons of Manasseh the son
of Joseph, and their inheritance remained
in the tribe of the family of their father.
13 These are the commandments and
the judgments, which the Lord commanded
by the hand of Moses to the children
of Israel in the plains of Moab by
Jordan near Jericho.
