Numbers 27:3

he died in his own sin in the ordinary sinfulness of a man, like the rest of his generation who died during the forty years in the wilderness. They point out that their father had not taken part in the sin of Korah's company, that is, he had not committed any crime great enough to deserve the alienation of the property from his family after his death.

Notice that the reference to Korah's company is in agreement with the main part of the P story in ch. 16, in which Korah's company were laymenand not Levites; for it is implied that Zelophehad, who was a Manassite, might have been one of them.
