The daughters of Zelophehad petitioned Mose,Eleazar the priest, the chieftains, and the whole assembly, at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting for their right to inherit his property rights in the Land of Israel, not wanting to move on his own power, Moses asked God and the women were given an equal share with all. She may seem unconventional but God thought them worthy. Peace.
