Overview
Hammoleketh appears in the genealogical records of 1 Chronicles as a female descendant of Manasseh, one of Joseph's sons. She was the daughter of Machir and is noted for her descendants who became heads of families within the tribe of Manasseh. Though her role in Israel's history is not detailed beyond genealogy, her inclusion in the tribal records demonstrates the importance of family lines in establishing tribal identity and land inheritance.
