Of the sons of Manasseh: of Machir
on Numbers 26:29-34
Manasseh is counted through Machir and Gilead, and the six sons of Gilead give the six families of the tribe. The list reaches Hepher, then Zelophehad, and then records five names a muster roll had no need of, Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah. A daughter has no standing in a count of men able to go to war, and these five are written in anyway. Chapter 27 is where they come and ask for a share of the inheritance this census is being taken to divide.
