What does it say?
The daughters of Zelophehad were not given their father’s inheritance when he died because they were not sons. The five women went before Moses to plead their case.
What does it mean?
Five daughters of Zelophehad, from the tribe of Manasseh, boldly went before the whole nation to plead their case: why should they be denied the inheritance of their father because they were women? These women were very brave to stand up together for what they believed was right. Moses brought their argument before the Lord, and He agreed. The Lord said that if a man dies and has no sons, his inheritance would go to the daughters. The condition was made later that those daughters would have to marry within their tribe to keep the inheritance from transferring to another tribe.
How should I respond?
It’s not always easy to stand up for yourself and what you believe in. It takes courage to stand your ground and defend what you know is right. But there is strength in numbers. Which friends would you call on to stand with you in a tough situation? In what situation would your presence give someone courage? If no one comes to mind, remember that the best way for followers of Christ to find like-minded friends is to get connected at a local church. Difficult situations will arise; be prepared. Find friends you can count on, and let them know they can count on you.

In the book of Numbers, God demonstrates himself as a pillar of fire and a pillar of smoke, faithfully leading his often rebellious people through the wilderness. Although the faithless wilderness generation was barred from entering the promised land, God was raising up a generation to lead the people from their wandering into the conquest of the land of Canaan.
