every daughter: 1 Chronicles 23:22
Reciprocal: Genesis 38:8 - General Numbers 16:14 - Moreover
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And every daughter that possesseth an inheritance in any tribe if the children of Israel,.... For the same law which gave the daughters of Zelophehad right to their father's inheritance, gave every other daughter in Israel a right to inherit where there were no sons,
Numbers 27:8 and every such daughter, according to this law,
shall be wife unto one of the family of the tribe of her father; marry into her father's tribe and family; by which it appears that such who were not heiresses might marry persons of another family, and even of another tribe:
that the children of Israel may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers; of his father's brethren, or of those that are near akin to him.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The daughters of Zelophehad had obtained an ordinance Numbers 28:6-11 which permitted the daughters of an Israelite dying without male issue to inherit their father’s property. The chiefs of the Machirites, of whom Zelophehad had been one, now obtain a supplemental enactment, directing that heiresses should marry within their own tribe.
Numbers 36:4
Be taken away - i. e. be permanently taken away. The jubilee year, by not restoring the estate to the tribe to which it originally belonged, would in effect confirm the alienation.
Numbers 36:11
Unto their father’s brothers’ sons - Or more generally, “unto the sons of their kinsmen.â€
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Numbers 36:8. Every daughter that possesseth an inheritance — This law affected none but heiresses; all others were at liberty to marry into any of the other tribes. The priests and Levites, who could have no inheritance, were exempt from the operation of this law. Jehoiada had the king of Judah's daughter to wife, 2 Chronicles 22:11. And another priest had for wife one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, Ezra 2:61. "By reason of such marriages," says Mr. Ainsworth, "there might be kindred between Elisabeth, the mother of John the Baptist, who was of the daughters of Aaron, and Mary the virgin, the mother of our Lord, who was of the lineage of David, and tribe of Judah;" Luke 1:5; Luke 1:36; Luke 3:23-31.
