Daughter:

The word is used in Scripture not only for daughter, but for granddaughter or other female descendant (Genesis 24:48). It is used of the female inhabitants of a place or country (Genesis 6:2; Luke 23:28) and of cities in general (Isaiah 10:32; 23:12) but more specifically of dependent towns or hamlets, while to the principal city the correlative "mother" is applied (Numbers 21:25). "Daughters of music," i.e. singing birds (Ecclesiastes 12:4) refers to the power of making and enjoying music.
