So now the LORD God of Israel hath dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possess it?
Así que ahora el SEÑOR, el Dios de Israel, ha expulsado a los amorreos de delante de su pueblo Israel, ¿y tú vas a tomar posesión de esa tierra?
Jefté argumenta que Dios mismo dio la tierra a Israel al expulsar a los amorreos, por lo que no tienen derecho a reclamarla.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This is part of Jephthah's diplomatic response to the Ammonite king who was demanding that Israel return the land they had taken. Jephthah is making a legal and theological argument that Israel's possession of the land is legitimate because God himself drove out the previous inhabitants and gave it to them. This reflects the ancient Near Eastern understanding that gods determined territorial boundaries through conquest.
