The Daughters of Zelophehad – Numbers 27
- The daughters of Zelophehad (Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah) come before Moses and tell him that their father died in the wilderness for his sin and left no sons. They ask that Moses give them a possession among their father's brothers.
- Moses brings the case before the Lord, and God agrees that they should be given an inheritance. God also instructs that if any other men die without sons (only daughters), their inheritance is to be given to their daughters. If there are no daughters, then the inheritance is to be given to the man's brothers, and if he has no brothers, then to his uncles, and if he has no uncles, then to the nearest kinsman.
Joshua to Succeed Moses
- God tells Moses to go up onto the mountain of Abiram and see the land that He has given to Israel. After Moses has seen it, he will die as Aaron did, since he rebelled against the instructions given in the wilderness of Zin.
- Moses asks God to appoint a man over the congregation, and God chooses Joshua. As instructed, Moses has Joshua stand before Eleazar and the congregation, and Eleazar commissions him.
