Mizpah in Gilead (Judges)
Mizpah is a town in Gilead, where Jephthah resided, and where he assumed the command of the Israelites in a time of national danger. Here he made his rash vow; and here his daughter submitted to her mysterious fate. Some scholars say it may be the same as Ramoth-Gilead, and it is also believed by some that it is identical with the Mizpeh of Genesis 31:23, 25, 48, 49.
