Kedushat Levi
Numbers 27,5. “Moses submitted their judicial claim before the Lord (for judging).”
When a father prepares to allocate his inheritance to his son he derives pleasure from it. At this point, with G’d being our Father, and we being His sons, Moses wished to give our “Father” the pleasure and satisfaction to make a ruling concerning who is to inherit what. The משפט, “judgmental ruling” that he referred to was the law of inheritance.
[I believe our author found the reference to the word משפט as somewhat puzzling, as on similar occasions when Moses submitted a legal question to G’d the term had not been used. (Compare Leviticus, 24,12, or Numbers 9,8. Ed.]
