Notes
The Lord quickly provided the justice that the men of the tribe of Joseph asked for in their request.
Here, the tribe of Joseph refers to the tribe of Manasseh, the son of Joseph.
The five daughters of Zelophehad requested and received fair property rights (27:1–11). This passage discusses the effects of that decision.
