Zelophehad
     first-born, of the tribe of Manasseh, and of the family of
     Gilead; died in the wilderness. Having left no sons, his
     daughters, concerned lest their father's name should be "done
     away from among his family," made an appeal to Moses, who, by
     divine direction, appointed it as "a statute of judgment" in
     Israel that daughters should inherit their father's portion when
     no sons were left (Num. 27:1-11). But that the possession of
     Zelophehad might not pass away in the year of jubilee from the
     tribe to which he belonged, it was ordained by Moses that his
     daughters should not marry any one out of their father's tribe;
     and this afterwards became a general law (Num. 36).
