Judges 20:29-21:25; Judges 13:1-25
Once again, we see where a vow was made that would later be regretted. Prior to engaging Benjamin in battle, the Israelites made a vow that none of them would give their daughters in marriage to a Benjamite. However, once they had nearly destroyed the tribe of Benjamin, they were sorrowful and wished that they could give the tribe enough young women so that it would not cease to exist. The final plan they devised was to allow the Benjamites to kidnap wives for themselves. The Israelites should not have made the vow in the first place.
