Numbers 36:10 In-Context

8 A woman who inherits her father's land may marry, but she must marry someone from her own tribe. In this way every Israelite will keep the land that belonged to his ancestors.
9 The land must not pass from tribe to tribe, and each Israelite tribe will keep the land it received from its ancestors."
10 Zelophehad's daughters obeyed the Lord's command to Moses.
11 So Zelophehad's daughters -- Mahlah, Tirzah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Noah -- married their cousins, their father's relatives.
12 Their husbands were from the tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph, so their land stayed in their father's family group and tribe.
