One of the earliest recorded cases of women's rights involves a Tirzah. During the time in the wilderness, a man named Zelophehad died, leaving only daughters. His property would have gone to his brothers but Tirzah and her sisters appealed to Moses. Moses listened to their claim and declared that henceforth daughters would be able to inherit their father's property.
