Strong's Lexicon Choglah: Hoglah Original Word: חָגְלָה Part of Speech: Proper Name Feminine Transliteration: Choglah Pronunciation: KHOG-lah Phonetic Spelling: (khog-law') Definition: Choglah Meaning: Choglah is a proper noun referring to a person, specifically one of the daughters of Zelophehad. Word Origin: Derived from the root חָגַל (chagal), meaning "to dance" or "to whirl." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Choglah, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. Usage: The name Choglah appears in the context of the daughters of Zelophehad, who are noted for their petition to inherit their father's property in the absence of a male heir. This is a significant event in the biblical narrative concerning inheritance laws. Context: Choglah is one of the five daughters of Zelophehad, a descendant of Manasseh, the son of Joseph. The daughters of Zelophehad—Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah—are mentioned in the Book of Numbers (Numbers 26:33; 27:1-11) and the Book of Joshua (Joshua 17:3-6). Their story is notable for their appeal to Moses and the leaders of Israel to grant them an inheritance among their father's brothers, as their father died without a male heir. This appeal led to a divine ruling that established a precedent for inheritance rights for daughters in Israel, provided there were no sons. Choglah's inclusion in this narrative highlights the progressive nature of this legal decision in the context of ancient Israelite society.
