Bamidbar 27:2-4

Orthodox Jewish Bible

² And they stood before Moshe, and before Eleazar HaKohen, and before the Nasiim and kol HaEdah, by the petach Ohel Mo’ed, saying,

³ Avinu died in the midbar, and he was not in the edah hano’adim (assembly of ones banding together) against Hashem in the Adat Korach; but died in his own chet, and had no banim.

⁴ Why should the shem avinu be withdrawn [see Rv 3:5 OJBC] from among his Mishpakhat, because he hath no ben? Give unto us therefore achuzzah among the achei avinu.
