The story of Jephte is based on the biblical story in Judges. Jephthah promises the Lord that, if he defeats the enemy Ammonites in battle, he will sacrifice the first living creature that he sees when he returns home. But on his victorious return, he first sees not the animals of his flocks but his daughter, his only child, who has run out on the road to meet him. The oratorio focuses principally on this human drama that follows the battle and on the emotional shift from the daughter’s initial victory dance to the final lament over her fate.
