2. Preface
• In this section, we will mention Abraham and
Jephthah’s personal performance in their
spiritual experience. We will first describe the
general process and compare the two people’s
experience from the starting point. What are
the similarities in the results? What's the
result? In addition, we will mention whether
there can be a turning point in this matter.

3. Starting
• Gen. 22:2 “Then He said, “Take now your son, your
only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of
Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one
of the mountains of which I shall tell you.””
• Judges 11:30 30 And Jephthah made a vow to the
LORD, and said, “If You will indeed deliver the people
of Ammon into my hands,
• Judges 11:31 31 then it will be that whatever comes
out of the doors of my house to meet me, when I
return in peace from the people of Ammon, shall
surely be the LORD’s, and I will offer it up as a burnt
offering.”

4. Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac
• Gen. 22:7 “But Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and
said, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my son.”
Then he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where
is the lamb for a burnt offering?””
• Gen. 22:8 “And Abraham said, “My son, God will
provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering.” So
the two of them went together.”
• Gen. 22:9 “Then they came to the place of which God
had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and
placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son
and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.”

5. Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac
• Gen. 22:10 “And Abraham stretched out his hand
and took the knife to slay his son.”
• Gen. 22:11 “But the Angel of the LORD called to
him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!”
So he said, “Here I am.””
• Gen. 22:12 “And He said, “Do not lay your hand
on the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know
that you fear God, since you have not withheld
your son, your only son, from Me.””

6. Battle of Jephthah
• Judges 11:32 32 So Jephthah advanced toward the
people of Ammon to fight against them, and the LORD
delivered them into his hands.
• Judges 11:34 34 When Jephthah came to his house at
Mizpah, there was his daughter, coming out to meet
him with timbrels and dancing; and she was his only
child. Besides her he had neither son nor daughter.
• Judges 11:35 35 And it came to pass, when he saw her,
that he tore his clothes, and said, “Alas, my daughter!
You have brought me very low! You are among those
who trouble me! For I have given my word to the
LORD, and I cannot go back on it.”

7. Battle of Jephthah
• Judges 11:36 36 So she said to him, “My father, if you have
given your word to the LORD, do to me according to what
has gone out of your mouth, because the LORD has
avenged you of your enemies, the people of Ammon.”
• Judges 11:37 37 Then she said to her father, “Let this thing
be done for me: let me alone for two months, that I may go
and wander on the mountains and bewail my virginity, my
friends and I.”
• Judges 11:39 39 And it was so at the end of two months
that she returned to her father, and he carried out his vow
with her which he had vowed. She knew no man. And it
became a custom in Israel

8. Similarities between the two
• Are all dedicated to my beloved
• All violate the Ten Commandments:
• Exodus 20:13「You shall not murder.」
• The sacrifices are agreed to be offered
• Sacrifices can resist
• Are related to Jehovah God

9. The difference between the two
• Different source
• Abraham offered Isaac from God's request
• Jephthah’s daughter was offered by his vow
with God
• The results are different: Abraham's son: Isaac
did not die
• Jephthah's daughter is dead

10. What did God say afterwards
• Gen. 22:15 “Then the Angel of the LORD called to
Abraham a second time out of heaven,”
• Gen. 22:16 “and said: “By Myself I have sworn, says the
LORD, because you have done this thing, and have not
withheld your son, your only son—”
• Gen. 22:17 “blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I
will multiply your descendants as the stars of the
heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and
your descendants shall possess the gate of their
enemies.”
• Gen. 22:18 “In your seed all the nations of the earth
shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”

11. What did God say afterwards
• Judges 11:40 40 that the daughters of Israel
went four days each year to lament the
daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite.

12. Who gets the glory
• Gen. 22:16 “and said: “By Myself I have sworn,
says the LORD, because you have done this thing,
and have not withheld your son, your only son—”
• Luke. 14:26 “‘If anyone comes to Me and does
not hate his father and mother, wife and children,
brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he
cannot be My disciple.”
• Jehovah, Abraham, Isaac
• Jephta, daughter of Jephta

13. Can Jephthah have a second chance?
• Dear Abba Father, thank you for allowing us to
defeat our enemies. I now want to abide by my
agreement with you, but there is one part of the
agreement I swear with you that violates your
will. Don’t kill. And only you can make life dead. I
now put our agreement in front of you. Please
modify our agreement so that I can not only
realize my agreement, but also enable your holy
name to be fully glorified. The above prayer is in
the holy name of Jesus Christ
