And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 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 — The divine verdict affirms the daughters' justice. The LORD rules in their favor, establishing that women may inherit when sons are absent. This represents a paradigm shift in the inheritance system: biology does not determine justice. The law adapts to reality.
