Daughters of Zelophehad
text:
The Daughters of Zelophehad were five sisters – Mahlah, Noa, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah – mentioned in the biblical Book of Numbers. They lived during the Israelites' Exodus from Egypt as they prepared to enter the Promised Land and who raised before the Israelite community the legal case of a woman's right and obligation to inherit property in the absence of a male heir in the family. Zelophehad, a man of the Tribe of Manasseh, had five daughters but no sons, and therefore no male heirs.
