The vow was made conditional, we see, As means that might engage the Deity, To be with him and so with him remain, That o'er his foes he might a conquest gain j On this the Lord relieved him from bis woes, He answer'd' him and overthrew hi&foeik .
This sure implies — seems almost to allow,.
That Jephthah's God accepted of t
...he vow ; We can t suppose that He who dwells in lights Would heed a vow unlawful in bis sight.
