The judge who made that rash vow was Jephthah, as described in the Book of Judges (Judges 11:30-31). He promised that whatever came out of his house to greet him upon his return from battle would be dedicated to the Lord and offered as a burnt offering. Tragically, his daughter was the first to come out to greet him, leading to a devastating fulfillment of his vow.
