Judg 11:10 | MHM | STEP | v. 10–11 : The elders agreed right away, promising with an oath: The Lord be witness between us (Judges 11:10 ). Jephthah then went with them, and at Mizpeh he was made both captain and head by the people’s agreement (Judges 11:11 ). Jephthah also prayed and spoke all his plans before God, showing his dependence on the Lord and his desire to be guided by Him. Like Jephthah, we should always seek God’s wisdom and blessing before making important decisions.
