The third part of the Chapter.
IN this third part it is showed generally, that Jephthah overcame and subdued the Ammonites. And in particular, first how God gave him the spirit 1of courage and fortitude to this end. Secondly, that before he entered the battle he made a vow to the Lord, that if he should get the victory, he would offer that to him, which should first come out of doors to meet him. Thirdly, how after this he went forward to Gilead and Manasseh, and came to the place where the Ammonites were: and so lastly, how (fighting with them) the Lord delivered them into his hands.
