Numbers 27

The daughters of Zelophehad claim their inheritance, Numbers 27:1-4 . Moses brings their case before the Lord, Numbers 27:5 . He allows their claim, Numbers 27:6 , Numbers 27:7 ; and a law is made to regulate the inheritance of daughters, Numbers 27:8-11 . Moses is commanded to go up to Mount Abarim, and view the promised land, Numbers 27:12 ; is apprised of his death, Numbers 27:13 ; and because he did not sanctify God at the waters of Meribah, he shall not enter into it, Numbers 27:14 . Moses requests the Lord to appoint a person to supply his place as leader of the Israelites, Numbers 27:15-17 . God appoints Joshua, commands Moses to lay his hands upon him, to set him before Eleazar the priest, and give him a charge in the sight of the people, Numbers 27:18-20 . Eleazar shall ask counsel for him by Urim, and at his command shall the Israelites go out and come in, Numbers 27:21 . Moses does as the Lord commanded him, and consecrates Joshua, Numbers 27:22 , Numbers 27:23 .
