This chapter picks up a thread of several women who had no brothers (see Numbers 27:6-7). They had been promised an inheritance for the name of their father. Here, they came before the leaders of Israel to claim their inheritance in the land of Manasseh. The rule laid down by Moses was honored, and another Bible lesson on the equality of all people (as well as the fact that the heavenly Father is no respecter of persons) is completed.
