This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jephthah uttered all his words, objectively so called; i.e. all that was spoken, not only by him, but also by the elders of Gilead concerning him, and concerning this whole transaction, and the conditions of it; or, all his matters, the whole business.
Before the Lord, i.e. before the public congregation, wherewith God was usually and then especially present: see Exo_20:24 Deu_6:25 Mat_18:10. Or, before the altar, which possibly they did erect upon this special occasion, by God’s permission. Or, in God’s presence, calling him to be present, as a witness and judge between them.
