1 Now Yiftach the Gileadi was a gibbor chayil, and he was the ben of an isha zonah; and Gil`ad fathered Yiftach.
2 And Gil'ad's isha bore him banim; and the bnei haisha grew up, and they thrust out Yiftach, and said unto him, Thou shalt not inherit in our bais avi; for thou art the ben isha acheret.
3 Then Yiftach fled from his achim, and dwelt in Eretz Tov; and there were gathered anashim reikim (outlaws) around Yiftach, and went out with him.
4 And it came to pass in process of time, that the Bnei Ammon made war against Yisroel.
