1. Judges 11 vs 31

30 Jephthah made a promise to the Lord. He said, “If you will let me defeat the Ammonites,
31 I will give you the first thing that comes out of my house when I come back from the victory.
I will give it to the Lord as a burnt offering.” - Judges 11 vs 30 - 31

And
30 Jephthah made a promise to the Lord. He said, “If you will let me defeat the Ammonites,
31 I will give you the first thing that comes out of my house when I come back from the victory. I will give it to the Lord as a burnt offering.” - Judges 11 vs 30 - 31

Judges 11:30-31
30And Jephthah made a vow to the Lord:
“If you give the Ammonites into my hands,
31whatever 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.”'

If Judges 11:31 had a human being in mind, and if Judges 11:31 wanted to refer to a person, as you want to argue the case, then, Judges 11:31 would have been written as:
whoever 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 him or her, as a burnt offering.”'

The absence of "whoever and him or her" in Judges 11:31, along with the grammatical structure and word construction indicates, an animal is what was in the mind of Jephthah, not a human being.

So nevermind that Jephthah, and his daughter, both agreed that she was the it that must be sacrificed, you rather insist that because the story writer did not use your desired pronoun in stating this, the story's claim should be rejected?

34 Jephthah went back to Mizpah. He went to his house, and his daughter came out to meet him. She was playing a tambourine and dancing. She was his only daughter, and Jephthah loved her very much. He did not have any other sons or daughters.
35 When Jephthah saw that his daughter was the first thing to come out of his house, he tore his clothes to show his sadness. Then he said, “Oh, my daughter! You have ruined me! You have made me very sad! I made a promise to the Lord, and I cannot change it!”

36 Then his daughter said to Jephthah, “Father, you have made a promise to the Lord, so keep your promise. Do what you said you would do. After all, the Lord did help you defeat your enemies, the Ammonites.” - Judges 11 vs 34 - 36

Jesus said: destroy this temple(His body) and in three days i will raise it(His body) up again

false jw's say: no, Jesus dead body was not raised again


ummmm, i wonder just what part of Jesus died and was raised up to life again,
if not His body




Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit(ruwach) of God moved upon the face of the waters.

the hebrew word "ruwach" in english is "spirit".

false jw's change God's word, in their book at gen 1:2 they replace "ruwach"(spirit)
with the words "active" and "force".
"ruwach" can in no way be translated as: "active force"

false jw's book:
NWT Genesis 1:1 In [the] beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 Now the earth proved to be formless and waste and there was darkness upon the surface of [the] watery deep; and God’s active force was moving to and fro over the surface of the waters.

can you imagine a people so evil that they change what God inspired to be said,
and then write the lie in their fraudulent book.
they do that same thing in other parts of their book, adding to and changing etc. what God said in the Bible.

those false jw people must think they are like ananias and his wife sapphira,
that God doesn't see their lies

ananian and sapphira were destroyed, so to will all the devils liars be:

Joh 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, that is his natural way of speaking, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Jephthah's daughter played her father, and he knew it.

Of course both, meaning, Jephthah, and his daughter, agreed that she must subject herself to being a living and/or live in sacrifice.

How do you think, makes God look, if God had allowed or permitted Jephthah to in His Name offer his daughter up to Him as a burning sacrifice. Hmm?

No human being in the bible is recorded as ever explicitly done anything like that

1. Judges 11 vs 31

Then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the Lord's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.
-Judges 11:31(KJV)

You missed out on something- the meaning of the word "for". I see from your response to some personalities here that you have substituted or given the wrong meaning to the word "for": you have replaced it was the word "as". You say, "I will offer it up as a burnt offering".

The preposition "for" in the Hebrew language has at least 14 translations. The best fit for the verse is בִּמקוֹם, instead of or כְּנֶגֶד, as against. Let's see this example: I will seize your allowances instead of flogging you. Instead here means "to give up (something) for something else" or "part with for some equivalent". Sometimes we use the word in the English language to indicate exchange, swapping, or substitution.

When you understand the full implication of Jephthah's vow, you would conclude that he was rash, and running contrary to the will of God. He wanted to institute his will above God's will. Why do I say this?

1. All burnt offerings from Genesis 2 to Jephthat's day involved the sacrifice of the male firstling of cattle, sheep, or goat- A shadow of the sacrifice of God's firstborn, Christ Jesus. Jephthah tried to be like many men, who substituted something in the stead of the instituted burnt offering laws (and God acted decisively); Cain was rejected because he offered the fruit of the ground instead of a firstling from the flock, Aaron's sons offered "strange fire" instead of the fire from the altar and paid with their lives, Elijah's altar was destroyed because he offered a burnt offering at Camel instead of Jerusalem, Saul was removed from the throne because he offered an animal (as a sacrifice) from Amalek instead of Bethlehem, and Uzziah was struck with leprosy because he usurped the prerogatives of the priest. I give all these examples to show that God abhorred Jephthah's vow. All levitical ordinances can never be replaced by the will of man.

2. The Bible shows us that God's people offered an animal sacrifice after warfare and according to God's prescription. We see this in the Book of Joshua after Joshua conquered Ai: He built it according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses - Joshua 8:31. When Jephthah said, "and I will offer it up for a burnt offering", one would think it referred to an animal. Only until his daughter was seen that one would see the true intention of Jephthah.

Acehart please dont encourage Kobojunkie to meander down a false trail because the line of reasoning that Jephthah intended or tried to be like many men, who substituted something in the stead of the instituted burnt offering laws is argued using false equivalence examples

Jephthah actually was sticking to the instituted burnt offering laws which is to sacrifice a clean animal. Imagine if it was a fly or pig that first came out to greet Jephthah, do you or Kobojunkie think, thats what we'll be reading happened in the text, hmm? Of course, not.

You guys need to use the head and not the heart, put emotions and feelings aside, let common sense, rationale and logic rule and win the day.

Even, as I earlier put up there, Jephthah has a get-out-jail free pass card, to prevent the fantasy giving up his daughter to God as a burnt offering. Yes, and that is, Jephthah could have done Leviticus 27:2-6, but he opted to go the whole hog which is succumbing to accepting and choosing a lifetime of living sacrifice to God, for his daughter

u such a fraud and think even God doesn't see it, don't you pussy

Acehart:
His wailing:

God’s yoke is easy, and His burden is light. Didn’t the scripture say, “His commandment aren’t burdensome”. If so, how come the tears?

You may be correct regarding Jephthah’s action and for good measure it’s facilitation by the Levitical laws. But those tears; wailing for what?

Judges 11:34-40
'34And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter.
35And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his clothes, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast brought me very low, and thou art one of them that trouble me: for I have opened my mouth unto the LORD, and I cannot go back.
36And she said unto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth unto the LORD, do to me according to that which hath proceeded out of thy mouth; forasmuch as the LORD hath taken vengeance for thee of thine enemies, even of the children of Ammon.
37And she said unto her father, Let this thing be done for me: let me alone two months, that I may go up and down upon the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I and my fellows.
38And he said, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains.
39And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed: and she knew no man. And it was a custom in Israel,
40That the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year.'

I earlier submitted that Jephthah's daughter played her father. She played him very well, and he knew it.

Watch at Judges 11:37-38, what she said, which is 'I will go to bewail my virginity', notice that she doesn't say, 'I'll bewail my coming burning offering death', but accentuated the fact expressed that she never will marry, meaning won't leave at father's house, meaning she'll perpetually be Daddy's girl for life, living at home, dedicated to God's work.

Acehart:
I mentioned that it “may” have become a tradition for Israel to sacrifice an animal after victory in war, something that began with Moses, after the Amalek war or with Joshua after the Ai war. Jephthah didn’t need to make a vow; just follow the tradition delivered to them and an animal without blemish that comes out of anywhere in Israel and not his house alone would be sufficient.

An animal without blemish that comes out of anywhere in Israel and not his house alone wouldn't necessarily be Jephthah's personal animal that he has a right of, to do as he wishes

Here's the deal, Jephthah was expecting a servant at the very least who will first come out to meet him, and who then will be devoted to God's work, but if it happened to be one of his clean animals, then that is what would be sacrificed as a burnt offering.

Acehart:
His intention was according to his heart, a rash vow precipitated by the events of his past.

The vow was a veiled two-in-one overzealous vow done.

OLAADEGBU:


Are you saying Jephthah murdered his daughter to fulfil his vow? If your answer is yes how then does that prove that God did not support this kind of sacrifice? Is the law not against child/human sacrifice?

Is it the Law that a person can be held liable for the direct act of another?

If your brother should kill another because he had made a vow to you, shall you consider it good and agree to be held responsible for your brother's murder of that other?

No, you Shall Not, because it is not your Act.

You shall surely say "I no send am o, I am Innocent"

Your defence of innocence avails all in this circumstances and thus avails God too.

Therefore God is innocent of Jepthath's Act and can not in anyway be guilty of Jepthath's own Act.

Before you start chasing shadows you'll have to prove that Jephthah murdered his daughter.

For your information, God will not allow anything like an alleged burning sacrifice of Jephthah's daughter done in God's name that will discredit Him or that would bring the name of God into disrepute

We have a precedent set in the bible, where a young man was planned to be sacrificed unto God, but God stepped in, and made sure, to put a stop to it. God will never allow any bad smear, blotch or blemish stain His Hallow and Good Name

Fowls have a better chance of growing teeth than him prove that Jephthah 'murdered' his daughter.

No I don't

You asked a question on God's guilt if Jepthath murdered his daughter meaning if it is taken that Jepthath murdered his daughter would God be liable?
That have I answered so rebut if you can.
