11:5-6 These elders were apparently distinct from Jephthah’s brothers, although Jephthah’s initial response (11:7) appears to equate the two groups. They had promised (10:18) that whoever took the military initiative and attacked the Ammonites would become the ruler. Here, in typical Middle Eastern bargaining style, they only offered the status of commander, trying to diminish their initial promise.
