After
Abimelech there were other people that God rose up to save Israel.
There were Tola, Jair, and Jephthah to name a few.
Jephthah was a warrior, his father was Gilead and his mother a prostitute
and Gileads wife bore him other sons but they drove Jephthah away since he was
born of a prostitute. After this
the Ammonites made war against Israel and the elders of Gilead knowing Jephthah
was a mighty warrior sent for him to help them defeat the Ammonites.
The LORD not only gave the Ammorites into his hand but when they went to
pass through Shihon and they refused to let them pass through the LORD gave
Shihon into the hands of Jephthah. But
Jephthah made a vow to the LORD that he will regret: Judges 11:30-31
And Jephthah made a vow to the LORD : "If you give the Ammonites into my
hands, 31 whatever comes out of the door of my house to
meet me when I return in triumph from the Ammonites will be the LORD's, and I
will sacrifice it as a burnt offering."
Well
the LORD gave the Ammonites into his hand and when he returned home his only
child came out the front door of his house.
Yep he had to sacrifice his daughter for the vow he made.
She was his only child. Read
it, it is amazing. Jephthah
went on to defeat the Ephraimites and led Israel for 6 years and then he died.
Now there were more people that God rose up to save Israel here are a few
more. Ibzan, Elon, Abdon and then
the birth of Samson. We will dig in
there tomorrow.
