   1) Numbers 27, Numbers 28, Numbers 29   
      
   NUMBERS 27   
      
   Laws of Inheritance   
      
   Nu 36:1-12   
      
   1 (Nu 26:33) Then came near the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher,   
   the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh,   
   of the families of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and these are   
   the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Tirzah.   
   2 They stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest,   
   and before the leaders and all the assembly by the door of the tent   
   of meeting, saying,   
   3 (Nu 26:64-65; 14:35) "Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not   
   in the company of them that gathered against the Lord, in the company   
   of Korah, but died in his own sin and had no sons.   
   4 (Jos 17:4) Why should the name of our father diminish from among   
   his family, because he has no son? Give to us a possession   
   among the brothers of our father."   
   5 Moses brought their case before the Lord.   
   6 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:   
   7 The daughters of Zelophehad speak right.   
   You will certainly give them an inheritance among their father's brothers,   
   and you will cause the inheritance of their father to pass on to them.   
   8 You will speak to the children of Israel, saying, "If a man dies,   
   and has no son, then you will cause his inheritance   
   to pass on to his daughter.   
   9 If he has no daughter, then you will give his inheritance to his brothers.   
   10 If he has no brothers, then you will give his inheritance   
   to his father's brothers.   
   11 (Nu 35:29; Ru 4:3-6) If his father has no brothers, then you will give   
   his inheritance to his closest kinsman in his family, and he will possess it.   
   And it will be for the children of Israel a statute of judgment,   
   as the Lord commanded Moses."   
      
   [1] Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of   
   Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh   
   the son of Joseph: and these are the names of his daughters; Mahlah, Noah,   
   and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.   
   [2] And they stood before Moses, and before Eleazar the priest, and before   
   the princes and all the congregation, by the door of the tabernacle of the   
   congregation, saying,   
   [3] Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not in the company of them   
   that gathered themselves together against the LORD in the company of Korah;   
   but died in his own sin, and had no sons.   
   [4] Why should the name of our father be done away from among his family,   
   because he hath no son? Give unto us therefore a possession among the   
   brethren of our father.   
   [5] And Moses brought their cause before the LORD.   
   [6] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,   
   [7] The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a   
   possession of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt   
   cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.   
   [8] And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a man die,   
   and have no son, then ye shall cause his inheritance to pass unto his   
   daughter.   
   [9] And if he have no daughter, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his   
   brethren.   
   [10] And if he have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance unto his   
   father's brethren.   
   [11] And if his father have no brethren, then ye shall give his inheritance   
   unto his kinsman that is next to him of his family, and he shall possess it:   
   and it shall be unto the children of Israel a statute of judgment, as the   
   LORD commanded Moses.   
      
   Joshua to Succeed Moses   
      
   12 (Nu 33:47-48) The Lord said to Moses, "Go up into this mountain of Abarim,   
   and see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.   
   13 (Nu 31:2; Dt 10:6_ When you have seen it, you also will be gathered   
   to your people as Aaron your brother was gathered.   
   14 (Ex 17:7; Nu 20:24) For you rebelled against My commandment in   
   the Wilderness of Zin when the congregation argued against Me.   
   You did not show My holiness at the waters before their eyes." (   
   These are the waters of Meribah in Kadesh in the Wilderness of Zin.)   
   15 Moses spoke to the Lord, saying,   
   16 (Nu 16:22) "Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh,   
   appoint a man over the assembly   
   17 (Dt 31:2; 1Ki 22:17) who will go out before them,   
   and who will go in before them, and who will lead them out,   
   and who will bring them in, so the assembly of the Lord   
   will not be like sheep who do not have a shepherd."   
   18 (Dt 34:9; Ge 41:38; Nu 27:23) The Lord said to Moses,   
   "Take Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit,   
   and lay your hand on him,   
   19 (Dt 3:28) and cause him to stand before Eleazar the priest   
   and before all the assembly, and command in their sight.   
   20 (Jos 1:16-18) You will put some of your majesty on him,   
   in order that all the assembly of the children of Israel will listen.   
   21 (Ex 28:30; Jos 9:14) He will stand before Eleazar the priest,   
   who will ask for him about the judgment of the Urim before the Lord.   
   At his word will they go out, and at his word they will come in, both   
   he and all the children of Israel with him, even all the assembly."   
   22 Moses did as the Lord commanded him, and he took Joshua,   
   and he caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest   
   and before all the assembly.   
   23 (Nu 27:19) And he laid his hands on him   
   and commanded him as the Lord spoke by the hand of Moses.   
      
   [12] And the LORD said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and   
   see the land which I have given unto the children of Israel.   
   [13] And when thou hast seen it, thou also shalt be gathered unto thy   
   people, as Aaron thy brother was gathered.   
   [14] For ye rebelled against my commandment in the desert of Zin, in the   
   strife of the congregation, to sanctify me at the water before their eyes:   
   that is the water of Meribah in Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.   
   [15] And Moses spake unto the LORD, saying,   
   [16] Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the   
   congregation,   
   [17] Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and   
   which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation   
   of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.   
   [18] And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in   
   whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;   
   [19] And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation;   
   and give him a charge in their sight.   
   [20] And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the   
   congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.   
   [21] And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask counsel for   
   him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word shall they go   
   out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the children of   
   Israel with him, even all the congregation.   
   [22] And Moses did as the LORD commanded him: and he took Joshua, and set   
   him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation:
