Bible Question: Was it common practise for daughters to inherit at the time? |
Bible Answer: I don't have my reference books here at work with me, but if I remember correctly, it was very unusual for daughters to inherit things. My understanding of the culture of this time period viewed women more as property than individuals with rights. Brad |
