The document discusses Jephthah, who was cast out by his half-brothers but became a leader of men. When the Ammonites made war against Israel, the elders sought out Jephthah for help and asked him to be their leader. The summary emphasizes that God can bring about his will through difficult circumstances and that true submission to Jesus Christ as Lord means obeying him fully and trusting in his deliverance, salvation, and eternal life.
