It was not customary in this culture for fathers to give their daughters an inheritance. The author may mention this because it shows the special love and regard that Job had for his daughters. You could indicate that in your translation if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “And their father loved them so much and regarded them so highly that he gave them an inheritance in the midst of their brothers”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
בְּת֥וֹךְ אֲחֵיהֶֽם

This expression could mean: (1) that Job gave his daughters an inheritance just as he did for his sons. Alternate translation: “just as he did for their brothers” (2) that Job gave his daughters as an inheritance land that was located in the same area as land that he gave to his sons as their inheritance. Alternate translation: “of land that adjoined land that he left to his sons”
