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.
Numbers 27:1 — KJV
The daughters of Zelophehad. First mentioned in ch. 26:33, and here mentioned again in connection with the laws of inheritance (see Joshua 17:3).
The son of Joseph. The daughters of Zelophehad traced their ancestry back to Joseph, and sought an inheritance in the land their forefather loved and requested as his final resting place (Gen. 50:25).
Mahlah. The daughter of Hammoleketh (1 Chron. 7:18).
Noah. Compare Neah, a place name (Joshua 19:13).
Hoglah. A town named Beth-hogla is mentioned in Joshua 15:6.
Milcah. Another person by the same name was Milcah, daughter of Haran and wife of Nahor (Gen. 11:27-29).
Tirzah. Also a place name, the capital of Israel in the reign of Baasha and his immediate successors (1 Kings 15:21). In cases such as these, where a town or city is also the name of a person, if would be natural to expect that the person bearing the name, or his descendants, had some connection with the place, either in founding it or as owning property there.
