Judges 11:35

³⁵לה ויהי כראותו אותה ויקרע את בגדיו ויאמר אהה בתי הכרע הכרעתני ואת היית בעכרי ואנכי פציתי פי אל יהוה ולא אוכל לשוב

Judges 11 introduces Jephthah, a mighty warrior and the son of a prostitute, who is rejected by his half-brothers but later called upon to lead Gilead against the Ammonites. His story is marked by a complex negotiation with the Ammonites, appealing to Israel's history and God's sovereignty. The chapter culminates in Jephthah's controversial vow, leading to the tragic sacrifice of his only daughter, a stark illustration of the moral and spiritual decline in Israel during the period of the judges.
