Discovery BoxNumbers 36:3 
Context36:3 Now if they should be married to one of the men 1 from another Israelite tribe, their inheritance would be taken from the inheritance of our fathers and added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry. 2 As a result, it will be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
Numbers 36:8
Context36:8 And every daughter who possesses an inheritance from any of the tribes of the Israelites must become the wife of a man from any family in her father’s tribe, so that every Israelite 3 may retain the inheritance of his fathers.
1 tn “Men” is understood; it says “to one from the sons of the tribes of the Israelites for a wife,” or if he has her for a wife.
2 tn Heb “which they will be to them,” meaning, to those who have them, i.e., the marriages.
3 tn The subject is “Israelites” and the verb is plural to agree with it, but the idea is collective as the word for “man” indicates: “so that the Israelites may possess – [each] man the inheritance of his fathers.”
