Only Hoglah lacks the qualification "(daughter of Zelophehad)". I am very much pattern oriented so I wasted time verifying this was who I wanted.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    There is only one “Hoglah” in the Bible, so the disambiguation isn’t necessary.

    True, the possible confusion is only with Beth Hoglah assuming that the broader literature covered has no other occurrences. But that doesn't mean it is without negative consequences:

    See who is missing from the selection list? It adds to the difficulty in finding the correct entry.
