A few lessons that can be derived from the story of Zelophehad's daughters:

-Sometimes women have better insight when the rules don't directly apply.
-The land and the people are one. God's people are tied permanently, inextricably to Eretz #israel. It is their (our!) possession forever. Exile is like divorce.
-Sons inherit first, then daughters, brothers, and male cousins in that order.
-A man's name is more than the label on his birth certificate. It's his character, his legacy, and his permanent mark on the world.
